AP) – A Ulysses business owner has been charged with 29 felonies in an alleged theft of nearly $200,000 from another Ulysses business owner.

The Kansas Attorney General’s office says Carlos E. Moral, who started The Grant County Gazette in April 2006, is charged with three counts of theft, three counts of making false information and 23 counts of giving a worthless check.

Prosecutors allege he wrote bad checks and created false documents to steal the money from Richard Dudley, who owns The Movies, a theater in Ulysses.

Moral posted a $75,000 bond and was released from jail July 22. A court date has not yet been scheduled in the case.
