Bad Check Program |

"As your
District Attorney, I'm always concerned about the negative
impact of bad checks passed to local businesses. Millions of
dollars are lost every year by merchants as a result of this
ongoing problem. Bad checks affect everyone in terms of
higher consumer costs that must be passed on to offset
losses, and increased taxes to cover the additional costs
for law enforcement and prosecution.
In an effort to combat this problem, the Bad Check
Restitution Program has been organized to assist local
merchants with bad check losses. The primary goal of the
program is to obtain full restitution for the victim without
adding to the financial burden of the criminal justice
system.
First time bad check offenders are given the opportunity to
avoid criminal prosecution by attending a mandatory
intervention class, in addition to paying restitution. All
of this is accomplished without any cost to the taxpayers.
Your interest and participation in this special program will
benefit all law-abiding citizens and help your business
improve its bottom line!"
