Question

A check was received and deposited in the bank, but the check bounced due to insufficient funds in the account. Who should pay the fees?

Answer

The issuer of the check must bear the expenses, even if he was unaware of the insufficient funds in the account, as it was his responsibility to verify. If he did not verify, he must pay.
