I'm surprised, but, then, my education is limited.

(Btw, I never did track down what the crime of "uttering" (iirc a check)
was.)

Well, I did consider doing so, but I expected that I'd simply be
essentially repeating the (apparently) puzzling comments.
It might have been better to state that in the first reply.
I interpreted a solitary question mark to indicate something akin to
bafflement in each instance, and felt that I'd better "back down" and say
less. If I knew better where the bafflement lies, I might be able to
help, but, then, maybe I'd be wasting your time.
