    Hey I had my bank do that to me once too, and I’m brownish of the navajo-german-irish-spain type, how can that litigious man prove that racism was the reason his bank wouldn’t accept the check?

        But I’m not black. The best way I can describe myself is a lot of people tell me I look like Sandra Bullock. And this bank cruelty happened to me too. One time the teller wouldn’t even let me take $100 out of my own bank account. He literally sent me away with nothing. anyway my point is, if the bank teller Is suspicious of an uncharacteristically huge check, from anyone no matter what color they are, they have the right to refuse service I suppose. I’ve experienced it. So I’m curious how this litigious guy is going to prove that racism was the reason the bank wouldn’t allow him to deposit that huge check.

          Ah, I guess it’s a matter of being a legal pain in the ass to the bank by hiring a lawyer who makes the allegation probably through notices as well as court filing, and then you either battle it out in court or settle on the side
