Ček bez pokrića


Explanation:
Ček bez pokrića

Issuing a cheque with insufficient funds is an offence when the drawer knowingly issues the cheque to the beneficiary without having sufficient funds in the account on the due date. The drawer’s bad faith is established when he is aware that there are insufficient funds to cover the cheque

disagree  Daryo: The key point is elsewhere // sure is, but it's not the cheque that has "bad faith" ..

  -> It is a textbook example of bad faith in dealing with commercial paper, in this case – a bounced cheque
