Charges for bad checks are only acted on if the merchant/person receiving the check files a complaint with the authorities. Even so, in most cases the writer of the bogus check is given the chance to make restitution for the full amount of the check and whatever penalties apply.

It is possible that the district attorney could still issue a warrant for your arrest for passing a bad check, even if it was included in a bankruptcy filing. Bankruptcy generally discharges debts, but criminal actions such as passing a bad check may still be pursued by law enforcement. It is best to consult with a legal professional for advice on how to handle the situation.

How can you obtain a copy of your Schedule F from a bankruptcy 11 years ago?

Old bankruptcy cases are archived. I believe there are different archive locations based on the district in which you filed your bankruptcy. One way to get old bankruptcy documents is to contact the Bankruptcy Clerk's Office for the district in which you filed, and ask them where the archive location is for your district and get a contact phone number. Then, contact the archive center and order the petition. There is a fee to get copies of old documents. Or, if you're lucky, your attorney from the bankruptcy case may still have copies (not likely, but some attorneys keep copies indefinitely (like me)). The attorney will probably charge you a fee to dig up and copy the old documents, but it may be cheaper than paying the archive center. Please note that nothing in this posting or in any other posting constitutes legal advice; this is simply my understanding of the facts, which I do not warrant, and I am not suggesting any course of action or inaction to any person.

How many days do police have to file a warrant charge in Colorado?

It depends on your state's Statute of Limitations, if any. For example there are no Statutes of Limitations in South Carolina, so a warrant for an arrest can be filed at any time, something done by the Solicitor (State attorney, District Attorney, whatever they call such in your state), not by the police, which collects the evidence and presents it to the State.

Does bankruptcy protect you from a civil bench warrant?

No. It only protects you (financially speaking) from your creditors - NOT from the court. ALSO: Bankruptcy does not wipe out, or excuse, court ordered payments that were in effect prior to the bankruptcy filing.


Who has the authority to take action against a district attorney that is involved in warrant less malicious prosecution and Who can I contact besides my Court appointed Attorney?

Besides the judge himself, you will have to write a letter to the State's Attorney's Office. I should point out, that if you truly cannot trust your appointed counsel, you would do well to refuse him and have your refusal - and reasons - placed in the record.
