BOGUS CHECK

Each year, the business community loses millions of dollars as a result of bogus checks. To assist merchants, recover as much money as possible, the Bogus Check Restitution Program was created in 1982. Since its inception, the DA’s office has collected and returned more than $50 million to Oklahoma County business owners. 

This program is solely funded by the fees assessed to the bogus check writers and is not a burden to Oklahoma taxpayers. Any Oklahoma County business can participate free of charge.

RESTITUTION

Oklahoma State Statutes provide that as part of the sentence or plea agreement, the Court can order the defendant to pay restitution to the victim of the crime. Restitution may only be ordered in cases where evidence is shown to the Court of actual expenses the victim has incurred because of the crime. Some types of expenses the Court may consider include:

• Counseling, medical or dental expenses resulting from the crime
• Funeral expenses the family has incurred if the victim died as a result of the crime
• Loss of income resulting from the crime
• Other documentation expenses resulting from the crime
• Property damage resulting from the crime
• Value of property or money stolen that could not be recovered

The Court cannot order restitution for pain and suffering or for expenses that can’t be documented. However, the judge does have the liberty to order restitution for up to three times the actual economic loss presented to the Court.

991c REIMBURSEMENT
