On accepting checks. Do, but make it a practice to I.D. the check writer with a picture I.D. You should write some documentation from the I.D. on the check like the DOB, DRIVER liscense No. etc. to have as evidence that you did I.D. the writer. In most TX towns, the D.A. will not prosecute a bad check writer unless you positively I.D.ed them. A defense on their part would be that someone stole their check b ook. People in the know appreciate your getting an I.D. Its for their protection too. |
