§ 10-4-1 ISSUING OF BAD CHECKS.
   (A)   A person commits issuing a bad check if he or she issues or passes a check knowing he or she does not have sufficient funds in or on deposit with the bank or other drawee for the payment in full of the check as well as all other checks outstanding at the time of issuance.
   (B)   Any of the following is a defense to prosecution under this section:
      (1)   The payee or holder knows or has been expressly notified before the drawing of the check or has reason to believe that the drawer did not have on deposit or to his or her credit with the drawee sufficient funds to insure payment on its presentation;
      (2)   The check is postdated and sufficient funds are on deposit with the drawee on such later date for the payment in full of the check; and
      (3)   Insufficiency of funds results from an adjustment to the person's account by the credit institution without notice to the person.
