I don't think I'm threatening criminal prosecution, but I could be wrong. Here's what I want to include: "my research revealed that in the state of Pennsylvania a stop payment on a check for services rendered can be considered a crime. Don’t you think your possibly criminal actions would be a factor in a magistrate’s decision? I do." Originally, I had written "my research revealed that in the the state of Pennsylvania it is illegal to put a stop payment on a check for services rendered. Don’t you think your illegal actions would be a factor in a magistrate’s decision? I do." But after I received a few answers here, I realized there might not be a law on the books for that particular situation and I might be using too strong of a wording and changed illegal in both sentences. In the sentence before that, I say my research indicated the law is on my side and I could leave it at that, but she has been a total b___ about it and in her letter to us she attacks the business's reputation by saying we are doing things illegally and have a special relationship with the magistrate to ensure decisions go our way. She also attacked my reputation by saying I was irate with her when I wasn't.
