Writing bad checks is a form of fraud and you can be arrested for it.
However if you did not do it intentionally then the bank will just charge a fee. It is true that issuing insufficient funds checks is a form of fraud; in the state of Michigan it is referred to as Uttering and Publishing, and is a felony. While intent is a major factor, it will not protect you from prosecution. The number of checks issued will be considered along with intent. Intent may factor into the prosecutor's decision to pursue misdemeanor or felony charges however.

What can Wells Fargo add to your account to eliminate overdraft fees?
Wells Fargo can add a feature called Debit Card Overdraft Service. This allows the account holder to use his/her debit card to make a purchase even if the funds aren't all there. There is a fee for overdrawing the account unless money is added to the account before the cut off time the same business day. The bank can approve or disapprove the transaction. This helps to eliminate debit card denials at the register.
Can banks legelly allow you to spend money you dont have in your bank account?
Yes. As long as there is a scarcity of banking regulations, banks can do almost anything to cause you to owe them money. The administration is trying to clean up the banking industry but there is a lot of resistance. You need to pay more attention to monitoring your own accounts and not use your debit card unless you are sure your account can cover the charge. YOu can avoid overdrawing by keeping a buffer amount in the account at all times.
Why are prepaid credit cards the best?
Prepaid credit cards are the best option available, especially for those who aren't able to manage their finances, for many reasons. For one, they allow the owner to pay bills online and make purchases without overdrawing their account. Also they offer many of the same features as a regular debit/credit card, such as pin based transactions, online account management, and fraud protection. They also enable those without a bank account to utilize the convenience of a debit card.

Can only 1 person close a joint checking account?
It turns out that the answer is yes, which was rather a surprise to me. A person I know closed her joint checking account (with her husband) after her divorce, because he kept overdrawing on the account. She tried to have her name removed from the account, but they wouldn't do that without him; however, bizarrely, they were perfectly happy to simply close the account on her say-so. (This may have been practical: they may have just decided "it's better for us to close the account than to take the one person who actually puts money IN off the account.")
