Realizing that St. Landry Parish merchants lose thousands of dollars because of worthless checks, District Attorney Earl Taylor created the Worthless Check Division to track down bad check writers, return the money to the victims and deter future offenses through criminal prosecution and possible diversion.
Any person who receives a worthless check should follow the guidelines set forth in D.A. Earl Taylor’s Check Cashing Guidelines handbook.
