Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Georgia
Can I file them in Bankruptcy?
I received a check from a company I worked for drawn on BankOne, and cashed it at ACE Check Cashing Service, but after about three weeks, I was notified that the check did not clear the bank. ACE contacted me and requested proof showing how I received the check, and I sent them all the documentation they requesting to show I received this check in an honest manner. They are now calling threating me,and writing me about pay them back the money. They say they are protected under the Uniform Commercial Code 3.302, but I am preparing to file bankrupt, so can I include them in the bankruptcy.

Re: Can I file them in Bankruptcy?
Probably, but you should talk to the attorney handling your bankruptcy. If you don't have one, I strongly suggest you retain one so you don't fail to discharge a particular debt or have the proceeding dismissed for a technical mistake.
If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
