Randy and Evi Quaid are accused of skipping a bill in June 2009

The couple are accused of using a credit card they knew to be invalid2（无效的，伤残的） at a hotel in Santa Barbara, California.

They were arrested in Marfa, Texas on Thursday following the issue of a warrant in California.

While in custody3（被拘留中）, a local sheriff（郡治安官，州长） drove 58-year-old Quaid to a bank so he could withdraw the bail money.

"I like to help everybody out," said Presidio County Sheriff Danny Dominguez. "It's a small town."

The Brokeback Mountain star remained in his custody during the trip but was not handcuffed. The sheriff said the actor received no special treatment.

The Quaids face charges of burglary（盗窃）, defrauding4 an innkeeper and conspiracy5 in June, according to the arrest warrant.

Josh Lynn, the chief trial deputy for the Santa Barbara District Attorney's office, told the Associated Press news agency that prosecutors6 were waiting to learn what court date would be assigned to the Quaids by Texas authorities.

"To the extent that（就……来说） they've tried to complete any restitution7（赔偿） payment to the business in question, I'm sure that will help to resolve the case," Mr Lynn said.

He did not provide any further details.

Quaid, the elder brother of fellow actor Dennis, is best known for his roles in National Lampoon's Vacation, Independence Day and The Last Detail.

He won a Golden Globe and was nominated for an Emmy for his portrayal8 of President Lyndon Johnson in 1980s TV movie LBJ: The Early Years.
