Legal Advice
By Pearl Lolit •
What is the legal action for bouncing checks? Is this a criminal case, what is the implication of having a criminal case here in Qatar? My friend has a deliquent payment for her personal loan at the bank and she was forced to pay her dues or else the management will file a case.
Please somebody help me, i want to help my friend, she's very depressed because of her big problem way back home and now she was forced to pay all her dues.
Any kind hearted lawyer there who can advise what to do.

Fast-track bench to hear cheque cases Wednesday, 20 April 2011 01:22
“My estimation is that on average at least a thousand lawsuits regarding bounced cheques are filed every month,” Al Zaman told The Peninsula yesterday.
Legal sources say that most of those who issue cheques that bounce are younger people who set up businesses without much experience and go on issuing post-dated cheques.
According to Al Zaman, there is, though, no section of society which has been spared of this malpractice. But most of the victims are expatriates, he said.
Most banks file criminal cases against defaulters by citing cheques they issued that bounced.
THE PENINSULA
---------------------------------
Yes, It is a criminal case and could lead to deportation.
