If you're talking about enforcement of dishonored checks, you need to check: RCW 62A.3-502 through RCW 62A.3-525. http://apps.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=62A.3-502 If you want to know specifics, you should be more specific in your question, because there's A LOT of information in that section of the code.
In Missouri, writing a bad check is a class A misdemeanor if the amount is over 500 dollars. Unless you have multiple bad checks, you will just be fined and not serve any jail time.
Writing bad checks shows poor management and organization skills. It also shows a disregard for the law and for inconviencing other people. Not being able to handle your money might mean that the person has a mental illness if other symptoms are also present. Usually, people who write bad checks are just bad at handling their own finances and need to go to a cash-only system where they cannot spend what isn't there.
Writing fake checks is a criminal offense punishable by law. People have been prosecuted for attempting to cash checks involved in scams. If the person is writing the fake checks, then they can expect it to be much worse for them.
The law is almost the same everywhere. Any person who issues bad checks can be legally prosecuted by the person to whom it was issued. You can request the person who gave you the bad check to pay you or you can file a police complaint against them.
Report the offense to law enforcement. It is a crime to 'utter' worthless checks.
Arkansas code 5-37-302 refers to wighting bad checks ( hot checks ) ... this law has been amended many times ... but it will never be expunged ...
in Florida the law states any check written for over 50.00 is concidered a felony. there is no sentence if you pay the bad check within 30 days of being notified by the states attorney's office. beware they will issue a warrant for your arrest as soon as a complaint is made. depending on which day you are picked up, monday out on Tuesday but if arrested on Friday you will spend 3 days waiting to see the judge.
No its against the law.
Quickest and easiest way is to either call the local law enforcement agency or the Clerk of Court of the jurisdiction in question.
