My business received a $150 worthless check in Janesville two months ago. I also received a traffic citation last week and need to know how to request a continuance and where to pay the forfeiture. Explain the process for prosecuting the check and provide details on handling the traffic citation.

State that the worthless check must be between $30 and $2,500, marked by the bank as Non-Sufficient Funds, Account Closed, Return/Refer to Maker, No Account Found, or Account Not on File, and written within the past two years. Mention that a photocopy of the front and back of the check, a completed and notarized affidavit (from the Worthless Check tab), and a photo ID are required to prosecute the worthless check. State that a continuance for a traffic citation requires a written request to the Clerk of Courts for Rock County Circuit Court prior to the assigned court date. State that forfeitures can be paid at the Clerk's Office at the Rock County Courthouse or the Janesville Police Department (prior to initial appearance). State that payment plans for City of Janesville traffic matters are offered by the Rock County Clerk of Circuit Court's Office, and provide the contact number (608) 743-2216 for the Court Collections Officer.
