What remedies are available to check writers should businesses, courts, or governmental organizations refuse to accept the substitute check?
The Act does not specifically address remedies for this type of situation. A customer’s remedies are the same as they are today when some entity refuses to accept a proof of payment. However, based on the newness of this program, the customer’s bank may need to help in educating the entity that substitute checks are the legal equivalent to the original check.
