What if my check is returned for non-sufficient funds?

Payments made with checks not honored by a financial institution will be removed and marked unpaid in the system. There will be a $50 charge for returned checks.

Reimbursement for returned checks must be made by cash or certified check and will be processed in the applicable collection period, possibly resulting in additional penalties and interest.

Returned checks can only be processed at the Covington Sheriff's office location.
