Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California
Unathorized debit from checking
A company I signed a contract with made an unauthorized debit from my account. They said it was a mistake. I wrote a demand letter requesting and suggesting a resolution. They are putting me on hold. I plan to file a suit in small claims court if they do not respond within the next day or two. Can I also file criminal charges?

I doubt if the police will want to do anything about it. The only way you can know for sure is to report it and see what they do. However, remember that the police won't get your money back for you, so proceed with your small claims action.
