Sent to Legal Experts February 18 02:16 AM

MY PENSION CHECK WAS STOLEN ,AND I LATER FOUND OUT THAT THE THIEF TOOK IT TO A REPUTABLE BANK, AND THE BANK MANAGER CASHED IT WITHOUT MY I.D. OR APPROVAL, BECAUSE THE THIEF WAS A CUSTOMER OF THE BANK. THE CHECK IS NOT A SECOND ENDORSEMENT CHECK. STRICTLY, A CHECK FROM MY DECEASED HUSBAND'S COMPANY, THAT ALSO HAS MY SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER ON IT. ALL NINE NUMBERS, ALSO MY HUSBANDS SOCIAL SECURITY ON IT. PLEASE ADVISE MY OF MY RIGHTS. I ALREADY MADE A POLICE REPORT, AND MY HUSBANDS COMPANY WILL REIMBURSE ME THE AMOUNT OF THE CHECK,BUT BECAUSE OF THE LATENESS OF ME PAYING MY BILLS, I WILL BE CHARGED LATE FEES.WELL OVER WHAT I CAN AFFORD AT THIS TIME. CAN I TAKE ACTION AGAINST THE THIEF,WHO NOT ONLY STOLE MY CHECK,BUT ALSO FORGED MY NAME ON THE BACK OF THE CHECK TO ENDORSE IT AND ALSO INCLUDED HER ACCOUNT NUMBER, WITH THE BANK MANAGERS INITIALS OF APPROVAL ON THE BACK OF THE CHECK? CAN I ALSO TAKE ACTION AGAINST THE BANK MANAGER?

If the thief is charged criminally, the thief wil be require to pay restitution for any fees or costs incurred. You should be speaking with the prosecutor who charged the offense. You would have to nothing and you would be repaid as proceeds are received as part of restitution.

You may be able to sue th bank, however, the cost of such an action would likely eat up any benefit you may gain.
