Worthless Checks
Florida has various laws that regulate checks and how they are written. If a check is written and the drafter of the check knows there are insufficient funds in the account to cover the check, then a felony of the 3rd degree has been committed and is punishable by up to 5 years in prison. Additionally, depositing an item with the intent to defraud another is also a felony of the 3rd degree.
