@Longstocking: my thoughts exactly....tell her she has exactly 3 working days to make good on it or it will be turned over to the district attorney's office..........that will get her attention!

You probably can't prove criminal intent, and calling the police or district attorney will not get you anywhere (unless you're talking about a really big check).
I know it's frustrating, but as a business owner, you should count on 1/2% to 2% (depending on what business you're in) of the checks you receive bouncing...

@jk: Depending on the amount of the check, you can still turn it over to the da's office. All it would take is a traffic stop or an outstanding warrant check/run through N.C.I.C and boom they would have you in handcuffs off to jail for those charges alone ( I know because it happened to a former restaurant owner years ago).

take her to small claims court & get your money back plus court cost & filing fees . It will cost her 4 times the amount by the time she gets out of small claims... (LOL) but 1st I would take the check across the street & tell her she either pays or goes to court ...simple. But do it in a nice way so you do not appear to be demanding or a bi_ _ h , that way she can not say anything bad about you in court.

yes , 1st make a copy of the check & take the copy with you so if she goes to grab it she will only get a copy & you will still have the original safe & sound when & if you have to go to small claims.
Any way take the copy across the street & very sweetly ask her if she has forgotten she gave you a bum check & if she would like to pay you in cash for the check before you take her to small claims .
The worse she can do is throw you out of her store , then you can take her to court. Maybe face to face she will give you the money she owes you ...then you can refuse to give her service again once the debt is paid in full.
Just remember face to face is always better than over the phone because it's harder to get away (LOL).
