Any lender can file suit against the debtor/borrower to recover monies owed.
In the matter of criminal charges being brought concerning the check that depends upon the circumstances. For example, if the person wrote the check knowing he or she did not have the funds in the account that could be construed as a deliberate attempt to defraud. Usually the person is given the chance to make the check "good' plus any fees connected with the transaction before any other action is taken.

If you defaulted on a payday loan, that is not a criminal offense. It is a civil matter, just like not making the payments on a credit card. Lenders and collectors are prohibited from making threats to file criminal charges or have you arrested. Payday lenders can be notorious for this, but they are just trying to scare you into paying them. If your state allows payday loans, then they may be able to sue you in court for defaulting on a loan. Some states have made payday lending illegal. Check with your state attorney general or financial regulator to find out about state laws that may affect you. Also check out the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act on the FTC.gov website. This federal law governs collections, and actually entitles you to sue the creditor for violations. You may also want to consult a consumer rights attorney. If you're in Texas, check out Budd Hibbs website about this.
