I was assulted and agreed to accept $ 50,000 for not prosecuting. The check was post dated, when I went to deposit the check I got a copy from my bank saying payment was stopped. I spoke with the person , he said he will not honor the verbal agreement. I have no job and barely surviving, is there anything I can do???? Help Please !!
Optional Information: State/Country of Question: Minnesota Already Tried: I have tried talking to Him but no response, If I have a case I will borrow the money and retain an attorney
Your recourse would be to file a civil suit against the assaulting party.
I can sue him even though the case was dropped ?? what grounds can I sue him on and do you think the case will hold water, legal fees are expensive
what do you mean the case was dropped?
He was arrested for assult, I agreed not to press charges in exchange for $ 50,000 he agreed and wrote a post dated check. the charges were dropped but he did not honor his verbal agreement and the check he wrote me was stopped.
You can revive the charges by contacting the prosecutor.
Experience: Negotiate, Draft, and Review many complex commercial agreements each year.
