Legal Question in Business Law in Texas
stop payment
I own a freight forwarding business and I received payment for a shipment of goods, which included a third party expense, and the check was returned as payor stopped payment. I since have released goods covered by the check and have made my payment to third parties. The amount of the stopped check was $1500.00 Now the payor has contacted me stating that he stopped payment as he claims he incurred some expenses at delivery arising out of the service which I rendered. Please tell me how I can proceed to recoup at least my expenses.

Re: stop payment
Sue him in Small Claims. Give him written notice of your demand for payment, by certified mail, at least 10 days before proceeding with suit.
