(A) A person commits the offense of negotiating a bad check if the person makes, draws or utters a check or similar sight order for the payment of money, knowing that it will not be honored by the drawee.
(B) For purposes of this section, unless the check or order is post-dated, it is prima facie evidence of knowledge that the check or order would not be honored if:
(1) The drawer has no account with the drawee at the time the check or order is drawn or uttered; or
(2) Payment is refused by the drawee for lack of funds, upon presentation within 30 days after the date of utterance, and the drawer fails to make good within ten days after receiving notice of refusal.
