Timing on Returned Deposited Items

03/11/2018

Our customer deposited a check on 2/6/17. We received a NSF return on the 9th. On the 9th we re-presented the item but did not get the 2nd NSF return until 2/16/17. On 2/16, I submitted a Fed Adjustment (late return) but failed to include the image of the item so it was rejected by the Fed on 2/27. On 3/1/17 I resubmitted the return with the required documentation. On 3/24 I received a reversal stating "Please deal directly with the Drawee Bank. Our files are now closed. Thank you" Is there a time limit for when the depository bank can make a late return claim for a 2nd representment? Since I made that error, are we now too late to make the claim? What is our recourse or do we have any?
