The Police Arrested Connie for Writing a Check Without Sufficient

question 12

Multiple Choice

The police arrested Connie for writing a check without sufficient funds in her checking account to cover it. The prosecutor told the defense attorney the overage was due to a bank error and asked the judge to drop the charges. The defense attorney contacted the bank and learned that the information given to the prosecutor was wrong. Connie told her attorney that she closed her account before she wrote the check. Writing a check on a closed account is a more serious offense in the state where this occurred than writing a check with insufficient funds.

• C) The defense attorney should tell the judge about the bank's error and that Connie admitted writing a check on a closed account.
• D) The defense attorney should adamantly profess his client's innocence.
