I had a severe falling out with my ex-landlord, and in my best interest i removed myself from the situation. However one of the things i did wrong on accident, was ONE (out of many i had written over the years) check bounced for rent of August. He told me would be evicted if i didnt come up with the money, i knew i wasnt going to be able to, so i just evicted myself. He decided to press criminal charges for a bounced check. it was for 650 dollars. I got pulled over for a traffic violation and was arrested, i posted 1,500 PR bail and have a court date for the 6th of december. The cop that arrested me told me this was only a Class B misdemeanor and im not looking at jail time, most likely just financial restitution for the landlord. Im not convinced of this however, as getting cuffed and booked makes this whole situation seem more serious. i have never bounced a check before, and i have no criminal record. My question is, will i have to have the money i owe there on the day of court?
