Bad Check
Proposals
Reported
BY JIMMY BOYLSTON
Sen. Robert Lake of Whitmire,
a member of the Senate Judi
ciary Committee, said the com
mittee reported two bills out
last week that will regulate the
passing of bad checks.
One measure would increase
the penalties as the number of
offenses increases. First offen
ders, under provisions of the bill,
if their bad checks were less
than $100, could, upon conviction,
draw $50 to $100 fines or im
prisonment up to 30 days. Second
offenses could lead to $100 fines
or 30 days; subsequent offenses
would provide a 30-day jail term.
The other bill would make it
unlawful to stop payment on a
check with the intent to defraud.
Both bills were recently passed
by the House and Senate.
