If you write a bad check in Virginia, you are legally required to make good on the deal by paying the check holder the amount due, as well as fees incurred at their bank.
If you do not pay them back, and ignore their certified letter requesting repayment, you can be taken to district court in the county where you delivered the bad check.
The judge will then consider the evidence, and if you did indeed write a bad check and neglect to repay, you will be found guilty and charged civil fees, up to $100, as well as receive a judgment against you in the amount of the bad check. You will also have to pay the court fees incurred and may be subject to criminal charges and possible jail time as well.
