Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas
My husband is a contractor. He has completed work at a home and the homeowner is dodging payment. Is this a crime we report to the police or do just go to court?

Failure to pay a debt is usually not a crime (unless there was some fraud involved). In any case, it's very doubtful that you could get the police interested even if the facts did amount to a crime.
