SB38 increases the amount that merchants and businesses can charge customers for bounced checks, modifying the fee structure in South Dakota law. The bill also repeals several older provisions related to check-handling procedures while updating the rules in a new section of law. This change makes it more expensive for customers when their checks fail to clear.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
