Re: Bad Check

Go to the courthouse? specifically, what were you told, or what papers did you recieve? It is possible that you were instructed to pick up an indictment. I cannot say without specific information. If you have recieved a paper indicatiing you are being charged with a crime, it should indicate exactly what that crime is and its level. They may be trying to get you to come to them so they can question you and get a confession ( I see this frequently). DO NOT TALK TO THEM WITHOUT AN ATTORNEY. Please feel free to contact me for further answers. Best regards, Edward DiCato
