[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 708779, member: 18958"] I checked California: [B]Check[/B] fraud is considered to be [B]forgery[/B]. Under [B]California Penal Code[/B] Section 470, the crime of [B]forgery[/B] is a “wobbler.” This means that the prosecution has the discretion to charge the crime as a misdemeanor or a felony. ... A misdemeanor conviction is punishable by imprisonment in county jail for up to one year. If there were multiple checks forged, this could equal a lot of time, even as a misdemeanor. But the thing to consider is what he might do down the road. There is no good answer or easy answer. While each of us might know what to do if it is not our kid, I for one would not know, could not say what I would do in your shoes. But I think the others are right: before you decide to call the police know the law in your state. [/QUOTE]
