Bad Check:

Any person who willfully passes a bad check to obtain money, delivery of valuable property, services, use of property or credit extended by any licensed gaming establishment, may be guilty of a misdemeanor, or a felony if the amount of bad checks he passed within a 90 day period is $250.00 or more.  In addition to other penalties, he may be ordered by the Court to pay restitution. (NRS 205.130.)  The maker of a bad check is presumed to have intent to defraud if the check is drawn on an account which does not exist, if he failed to pay the holder of the bad check the full amount due plus any handling charges within five (5) days after receiving notice that the check is dishonored, or if the notice of refusal of payment sent to the maker by registered or certified mail at an address printed or written on the check is returned because of non delivery.   (NRS 205.132.)

The maker of a bad check may also be liable to the seller of goods or services a collection fee of not more than $25.00 for each check accepted by the seller but was dishonored by the maker's bank because of stopped payment, insufficient funds, or that the maker of the check has no account with the drawee.  (NRS 597.960.)

NRS 205.134 requires that a notice, which may be obtained from the Superintendent of the State Printing Division of the Department of Administration, be posted a every principal and branch office of every band and in the place of business in which retail selling is conducted.  The notice must be in boldface type, clearly legible, and must substantially conform to the following:

The issuance of a check or draft without sufficient money or with intent to defraud is punishable by imprisonment in the county jail for not more than 6 months, or by a fine of not more than $1,000, or by both fine and imprisonment, and the issuance of such a check or draft in an amount of $250 or more or by a person who previously has been convicted three times of this or a similar offense is guilty of a category D felony and may be punished as provided in NRS 193.130.
