I wrote a check in january 2009 for my tuition for the amount of $ 1800.00.I told the school to deposit the check after three days,but they check came into my account ten days after the date i ask the school to deposit it and my account did not have enough money to cover the check.I went to the business office and to pay the full amount with my debit card but the couldn't let me pay untill the received the check.The next day some of my money was automatic withdrawn from my account to pay some of my bills.i knew i could not pay the full amount when the school got my check,so i did not go to school two day,knowing the had dropped me out of school.then i got message that the head of business was looking for me.When i met him,he told me i have wrote a bad check to them,i tried to explain to him that i made an attempt to pay the full amount but they couldn't let me do that.and ask him to pay $ 1500.00 and pay the rest later,but he claimed they could loose their legal right.my sponsor who is paying for my tuition has legal problems with his company that's why i couldn't pay the tuition.They report me and i was arrested in March,i paid the bond $ 470.00.On my second appearance in court i told the judge i can not afford a lawyer because of the situation with my sponsor,he asked the prosecutor what kind of check i wrote,judge said tuition fee is not a hot check and he is going to dismiss the case on next court date.I want to know if i have any rights to claim anything,because the judge said the law in Arkansas does not say the school fee check as hot check,when i was arrested they took my fingerprints and pictures,and i paid $ 470.00 for bond.I want to know if a right to ask all my information to be erased from my criminal record and if i have aright to claim $ 470.00 i paid for bond.This case is in Arkansas.I am planning to go to Canada to apply for my visa because the one i got already expired,i want to make sure this isssue will cause no harm to me to get a new visa.i have never commit any crime in US or be out of my status as F-1 visa holder
