Need some guidance...here is a brief history
1. issued checks for use of county space with the county park
2. was told a few days later the space was double booked
3. we could not use the alternative space so we said no thanks and stopped payment on checks for breach of contract
4. they said we had to honor the checks we had a contract we said no way you did not perform
5. they sent many letters demanding pmt and we replied that we stopped payment for failure to perform
6. they turned the checks over to county for hot checks
7. they issued a warrant
8. I told the deputy this was a civil matter and he said i had to pay the checks 1st and then take it up with the DA
9. I paid checks and fees now there is a class c misdomeanor on my record and I was told I could nto get it changed since it has been longer than 10 days
10. Found on their web page that checks with stop payment are a civil issue
What are my options? File a suit? Expungement? REason with them?
I'm trying to find copies of the checks to show the "stop payment" and go talk to the Justice of the Peace or DA and see if they can simply get an order to fix this...not sure what they would call it...is this possible?
What should I do? Can't afford an attorney.
