I'm not a criminal attorney, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn last nite, but I would suppose a DA might look into a fraud count or two if the facts were especially clear. However, criminal investigations are not know for their quickness.

Again, we are more likely to go into court immediately to shut down accounts, call in a reciever or do whatever it takes to prevent the dissipation of whatever funds there are. However, our ability to do so is based not only on the specialized laws we have in ag, but the contractual rights we built in...in other words, you can't ignore doing some homework ahead of time in order to be this aggressive.

When I say shut down accounts...I mean just that. We literally slap a court order on the bank to shut down the accounts and hold the funds safe pending resolution. About the only thing that might get paid out of the funds during the pendency would be wages already earned, and payroll taxes.
