Re: 138 bounced checks
It is unclear from your question where the "bounced" checks were made. You indicate "India." If that is correct, his ability to travel internationally will depend on whether India issued some kind of arrest warrant for him and whether that warrant was accepted by INTERPOL and, under the relevant treaties, the US. The US does not pick up all international warrants. There has to be some treaty that would allow India to request the US authorities to honor the Indian warrant. As for whether your friend can fight the case from Canada, that depends on the laws of India. Why are you seeking advice from US lawyers?
