Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Minnesota
Stopped check payment of $2000
In the last few months of our relationship, my boyfriend borrowed over $2000 which he promised to pay back. When I discovered he was fooling around, I broke off the relationship. He wrote me a check for $2000 which I deposited. A few days later, the bank called to tell me the ex had stopped payment on the check. I called him and he said that he ''didn't have the money''. What steps in Minneapolis must I take to recover my monies? I live in St Louis MO as did he when the monies were borrowed.

Re: Stopped check payment of $2000
You would be best advised to file suit in small claims court (conciliation court) in Minnesota to seek a Judgement against him. You may then pursue creditor's remedies related to garnishment. The Judgement would also become a lien against any real property located in the county where the Judgement is filed.
