They're looking for you, sir. That is, if you're still alive: link Good luck!  |

Good thing local government has lots of extra in the budget to pay for this… Rob |

That's what the fine for $32 USD will cover. |

There's no way the guy is still alive. The math just doesn't work out unless he's managed to live to be over 100. 1928…a check for $30 USD (estimated $180 USD in today's dollars) probably written when in mid 20's, say 24, making his birth year 1904, serving in 2009 = 105 years old. Common sense has left the galaxy folks…come back next year when we arrest bigfoot for jay walking. |

Hey, Bigfoot should be treated just like everyone else under the law. He jaywalks, he's off to the slammer. No exceptions for big,hairy,fantasy critters. |

I thought they were bringing charges against Bigfoot for mopery. |

Amazing. The statute of limitation for passing a bad check in Tennessee is apparantly longer than for committing a rape. PDF link |

A Georgia sheriff's department mailed it to the Tennessee sheriff's department, which has to treat it as a valid warrant. The Georgia sheriff should have checked with the local DA first, who would probably have told him not to bother. Come to think of it, the Tennessee sherrif should have done the same thing. |

I can see it now. A tombstone with a writ or summons to appear super-glued to it. Then they arrest the process server for defacing a monument/grave… |

If we allow 105 year old check bouncers to get away with it, what's next?
Things have come to a pretty pass when he has been allowed to taunt the Law for so long.
Lock him up! |

The arm of the law is long, although not necessarily smart! |

Highlandcatfrog: 'Mopery' is actually just a misdemeanor
offense. It's the '..with intent to gawk' that raises it to the
level of a felony… |

Yeah I bet he is right now passing bad checks to game store owners. He has to be stopped. wont someone think of the children… I mean grandchildren… I mean great Grandchildren.. I mean, oh the  with it. |

Hey..Elvis's dad went to prison in the 1930's for writing a bad check…why should this slacker be allowed any thing different? I mean..30 bucks is 5 packs of Peter Pig Figs, or maybe one item from GW…or something like that… Next thing you know, they'll be asking for a Presidential Pardon of that John Wilkes Booth fellow…. |
