There are two procedures in NC - one civil and one criminal for collecting on bad checks. Sounds like if this is in the clerk's office its criminal. I do not know where you moved or if you left the state - if so, statute of limitations may have been tolled. Have you returned to NC?
If this is criminal, I suggest you go see a criminal law attorney as its on longer a simple debt collection matter.
