The usual penalty if found guilty for check forgery in the state of Indiana is a Class D felony. Also, fines can apply. It is also still on the Indiana books that a person caught writing forged checks can receive the penalty of 100 floggings, or whips to the back. This law is "outdated" and hasn't been used in quite a long time.
