Bounced check in Oklahoma

I'm afraid it wouldn't work going to the cop's, if
he had beat her up or something that would be
different, they would probably look at it as a
solicitation charge against her since it would
be just like an admission of guilt on her part.
And if she lied about what it was for they could
get her for that also.

I heard of one case where a guy called the cops
after a prostitute he was seeing had ripped him
off and he admitted to them that he had paid
for her prostitution services. They then promptly
arrested him for solicitation of prostitution.

The cops use underhanded shit all the time to bust people.

I saw an episode of cops one time where a girl got
busted for having pot in her car, she told the cop I don't
have anything, and the cop said well then just let me take
a quick look and you can be on your way sense you don't
have anything, so she gave her permission, the cop then
took a thorough look , found the pot, and arrested her.

If she hadn't given her permission for the search he
wouldn't of had the right to check her car.

I think some parts of Nevada is the only place
in America where prostitution is legal.

Anyway if she really wants to know for sure ask
a lawyer, just be sure and tell him the whole story
and all the truth of what it's about.

Either way, he wrote a check to her, in her name and he signed it.. services shouldn't have to come into question or explanation at all. Take the check to the DA and tell the DA the check is hot. They will handle it. Writing a bad check is writing a bad check. Doesn't matter what you write it for.

The guy will only have to claim that the check was stolen
or lost or something and filled out by someone else. No
receipt, witness, anything like that, any legit business
has a paper trail to follow. Seems risky to me. The
truth always comes out in the wash as they say.

You don't want some pissed off DA on your case
when he finds out what it is all really about, and if
it got out they would come down hard on her for
political reasons alone, to avoid the bad publicity.

News paper article---Local DA defends prostitution.

Talk to a lawyer first before doing anything, otherwise
could go from bad to worse.

What could possibly go wrong?

First off... If you all remember that asshat video vigilante in OKC some years back that made it on to 60 minutes? Yeah escorting is NOT legal in Oklahoma....

Second.. What the fuck??? A check?? I don't know who was dropped on their head the most when they were an infant her or him but either way this is an epic laugh fest for me... Goddamn I needed this.. True he could turn it around ect ect ect. So that being said..

Best thing to do is chalk it up to a loss, take the tax deduction on it and move on.

And... Trust no one... Except your best friend... CASH!!!!!!

Wow...... I don't know which is worse. Accepting a check, or writing a check. Originally Posted by CarolinaGent

Bogus Checks in Oklahoma

The Bogus Check Restitution Program was established in February of 1983 under the guidelines of 22 O.S. (1982) 111 et seq, to assist citizens of District 21 with the collection and/or prosecution of bogus checks. The program is designed to deter the writing of bad checks by providing restitution to the victim and enforcing sanctions to the check writer without inundating the court system with criminal charges.

Following are frequently asked questions about the bogus check program:

HOW DO I SUBMIT A CHECK FOR COLLECTION?

A check enters the system when a merchant or citizen submits the check along with an information form and a signed and notarized affidavit. The check must fall under the guidelines of a false and bogus check as outlined in the bogus check statute.

The District Attorney’s Office will provide you with the necessary forms and is happy to advise you on check acceptance practices that will maximize our ability to collect on your checks. We are also available to speak to groups or clubs to explain the Bogus Check Program.

HOW MUCH DOES A MERCHANT PAY TO HAVE BAD CHECKS COLLECTED BY THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S OFFICE?

Checks are collected at NO COST to the merchant. In fact, the law allows the Bogus Check Division to collect the amount of the check plus a $25 fee for the merchant and any bank fee charged to merchant when the check did not clear the writer’s account.

HOW IS THE PROGRAM FUNDED?

Hot check writers are required to pay fees which fund all costs associated with the program. This allows the Bogus Check Program to operate at no cost to the merchant and with no expenditure of taxpayer dollars.

WHEN WILL MERCHANTS RECEIVE PAYMENTS?

Payouts are made Bi-weekly. These payouts may be for partial amounts of what is owed, or they may be the full amount. If you have multiple checks submitted to our office, the check will include payments on all accounts received during the prior week. The check stub will list the person(s) and amount paid for each account.

I HAVE A BAD CHECK THAT WAS SUBMITTED TO YOUR OFFICE FOR COLLECTION. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

If you receive notification that you have had a check turned into our office for collection, it is imperative that you contact us as soon as possible to pay the check and fees in full or set up a payment arrangement. Once a check has been submitted to us for collection you can no longer make payment directly to the merchant. Failure to act promptly could result in your file being screened for criminal charges.

HOW DO I MAKE PAYMENTS?

Payments may be made in person or by mail at the District Attorney’s Offices in Cleveland, McClain, or Garvin counties. You MAY NOT pay by personal check, credit card or cash. All payments must be in the form of cashier’s check or money order. Be sure that your payment it clearly identified with your name and type of payment (bogus check). Our office receives several types of payments, so be sure it is clear where the payment should be applied.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I WRITE ANOTHER BAD CHECK AFTER I HAVE BEGUN A RESTITUTION PLAN?

If the check was written on or before the date(s) of the checks already submitted to the program, they will be added into your current payment plan. If they are written after that date, your restitution agreement will be terminated and your file submitted for screening for criminal charges.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I FAIL TO LIVE UP TO THE TERMS OF THE RESTITUTION AGREEMENT?

Restitution agreements are designed to allow check writers to pay off the checks and avoid criminal charges. Failure to follow your restitution agreement will result in your case being submitted for screening for criminal charges. If charges are filed and the amount of the check(s) is under $500, you will be charged with a misdemeanor. If the amount of the check(s) is $500 or more, you will be charged with a felony. When charges are filed, a warrant is issued for your arrest.

If you are convicted on the bogus check charge, the judge will likely order restitution on the checks as part of your sentence. Our office also collects these court-ordered restitution payments. In addition to check restitution, defendants are required to pay court costs to the Court Clerk’s office.

If you have other questions about the Bogus Check Program, please contact the District Attorney’s Office in Cleveland County (405) 366-0269, McClain County (405) 527-6574, or Garvin County (405) 238-7368 and ask to speak to someone in the Bogus Check Division.

(As you can see in the PDF files linked above, they don't ask you to be detailed about what the check was written for.)

i say lesson learned .............. DO NOT ACCEPT CHECKS !

WOW, I guess it could work, maybe.
If they don't want too much information
about the services, and just go by the idea
that it was for something and the check
was given and the check was bad.

Didn't even know that such a program
existed, learn something new every day.

Thanks Voyeur for the research.
I wonder if they have the same thing in Texas.
