What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
On May 18, 2013 I was given a check for $350 that was to pay for 1/2 of a vacation (and is so noted on the memo of the check). The check was signed on May 18, but dated for June 1. I waited until after June 1 and cashed the check. I received a message from the bank stating there was a stop payment placed on the check. I was not given any notification from the other party that there was a stop payment on the check or stating why there was a stop payment on the check. I have tried contacting the other party to discover the reason but with no response. Does this fall under the Good Faith Dispute? Or can I take the other party to court for the cost of the check plus damages, which I calculated to be $1400?
Just a note: The payment was for a vacation that had already taken place. Not payment for a future vacation.
