I received a cease and desist letter from my ex-wife asking me to stop emailing and texting her. I admit I communicated with her too much, but she was reading my messages without responding. She did not formally ask me to stop until 3/11, which I have complied with. I have blocked her number and all forms of communication, using an application for our son's communication. Additionally, she lied about our declared assets and income, and there are serious behavior issues with our son at her house, including questionable actions by her boyfriend and her mother smoking around him. She is also trying to get full custody of our son. Do I need to respond to the letter, and what should I do about her custody attempts and the issues with our son?

Our LLC was paying weekly rent via checks that bounced due to mismanagement of funds. The landlord did not realize some checks had bounced until several weeks later, by which time most of the money had been spent. The LLC was given a payment plan to reconcile the debt, but it is now going bankrupt and can no longer pay. What should we do, and can we face jail time or fines for the bounced checks?
