Question submitted 10/28/2010:
Recently a furniture store where I purchased bedroom furniture took a photocopy of my check and my driver's license. In the age of id theft I was really concerned about the photocopy of my driver's license. Is this legal?
Answer from Kathleen Carter of Carter & Valle Law Firm:
A store is allowed to set its policy to insure identity of the purchasers. Your remedy is not to do business with stores that have policies that make you uncomfortable.
