    Bouncing a check just in itself, may not be criminal. Did you try to resubmit? What does the tenant say? Have you given them a chance to replace the check, maybe with a money order?

    How long as this been? When did you get the original check and how long has he been promising a replacement.

    Pressing charges against him opens a very larger can of worms. If he's in jail how is he going to pay?

    Ok, I would tell him if You don't receive a money order for what he owes by the end of the month then you will start eviction proceedings.
