    What is the statute of limitations for check fraud
    My husband and I filed for divorce and bankruptcy at the same time. The divorce was final before the bankruptcy was. I filed my taxes that year, as divorced and separate from my ex husbands. My refund was to go to my bank account, and the bankruptcy court stopped the payment, took out of the refund what it wanted for debtors, and then refunded the remainder in my name as well as my ex-husbands. The check came to me, at my address, in both our names. I live in Indiana, he lives 5 hours away in Illinois. He told me rather than make the trip to have him sign it, to sign for him. I did so, because at the time we were on very cordial terms. Now, almost 2 years later, he is saying that if I take him back to adjust child support from the rate of 71 per week that he was to pay while he was on unemployment of 300 per week to his current (for the last 16 months) amount of 3,000 per week, that he will prosecute me for signing his name on the check. Can he do this? What will happen to me if he does?
