Yes, Writing a bad check is a crime. You are not supposed to write a check that cannot be cashed. You must write a check only when you have a corresponding bank account and have enough money in that account to pay for the check. If that is not the case then your check is termed bad and you are liable to be prosecuted/jailed/fined for doing so. The rule is the same in all countries/states and Colorado is no different.
Because the cheque can bounce if you fail to do so. Banks can dishonor or reject a cheque that has any overwriting or unclear writings in it. They will honor or pay only those Cheques that are written legibly and have enough balance in the account. So to avoid your cheque bouncing it is better to write clearly on a cheque.

You can not write out a cheque just in letters, the value of the cheque must also be written in numbers.
# The cheque would bounce # The bank would charge you penalties for issuing cheques without sufficient funds # The person to whom you gave the cheque may sue you for issuing cheques without funds.
To prevent a cheque from being passed by the bank, you will have to write a letter to the bank telling them not to pass that perticular cheque, and give the cheque number.

If you are going to take the cheque yourself to cash it, the bank cashier or teller may ask you to leave the bank because there are no funds. If you are going to deposit the cheque in some other account in a different bank, then you may face cheque bounce charges in both the banks and a significant hit to your credit rating.
A "cheque bounce" occurs when a person writes out a cheque, but there are not enough funds in his bank account to clear that cheque. Here's how it works: When you write a cheque, you are instructing your bank to move a certain amount of money from your bank account to someone else. The bank cannot move that kind of money if you do not have sufficient balance in your account. The bank returns the cheque to the person with the word "bounced" beside it. Cheque bouncing can incur any number of penalties, not to mention damaging your credit and even leading to litigation if bounced too often. Ensure you've got sufficient in your account so as not to bounce!
It is illegal to write a cheque knowing that there are no funds in your account to cover it. The bank will not clear it and will charge you a fee for the service and possibly send you a tersely worded letter explaining the "Conditions of Use" of your cheque account. The other problem will be finding somebody silly enough to accept a post-dated cheque.
No. Because the check may "bounce", you have to wait until the bank clears the cheque and get the promised funds into your account. A cheque is a "promise" to pay, not a payment of actual money. In some countries (but not all) it is illegal to write a false check promise.
Writing a check (cheque) knowing funds are unavailable is an offence. You could be guilty of fraud.

Technically Yes but legally No. An account that is frozen cannot be used for regular monetary transactions like issuance of cheques. Even if you manage to issue a cheque, the bank will not pay it and hence the cheque will bounce. You will end up paying penalties to the bank for issuing a bad cheque plus face legal consequences from the person who was refused payment that was due through your cheque.
Either go to your bank and ask someone to explain how to write a cheque, or search online. Basically, you date the cheque, name the person the cheque is for, how much in writing and in numerals, and you sign the cheque.
