Title: Can you sue someone for not cashing a check?
Post by: 420seriouscat69 on February 08, 2013, 11:01:33 AM
I mean the nerve of this guy. It's $17 and it's been like two weeks and he still hasn't cashed it. The guys some pud lawyer and I'm afraid he's got a hidden agenda. Anyways, thanks Gooch for cashing yours.

You wrote a check for $17? Why not just give this unnamed person cash?

Cause I didn't have any cash on me at the moment and this pud individual was getting ready to head back to Wichita where he lives.

Not a lawyer, but I am pretty sure you can sue anyone for anything.

Fanning posted what I assume is his real address a few threads ago. Would anyone be shocked if he posted his bank account number here? I wouldn't.

So go ahead and post away Fanning.

One time I wrote a sizable check as a donation to my fraternity at a graduate event.  Four weeks later they still hadn't cashed it.  So I called the front desk and yelled at whoever answered to go tell the lazy POS to cash the rough ridin' checks!  It was cashed like the next day.  So I'd say just call him up and yell.

New to this thread, but know of the situation...  Pretty pud of the high powered lawyer to accept a check for $17.

Most  :kstategrad: would simply say "catch me next time" and wait until the poor had the pocket change.

He's not going to cash the check, I'm sure he had a different reason to get it from you because he doesn't care about the money.

he's probably waiting until he owes someone else $17, and then just transfer the check to them.

Until a month ago I had a check in my wallet for $50 someone wrote me for a ticket to the Mizzou football game in 2011. I found it when I moved about 4 months ago and they wouldnt let me cash it because it had been so long. When I told the person who wrote the check they just gave me $50 in cash.

Moral of the story is checks are stupid, pay cash.

Email from Grandma EMO:

"Emo EMAW:  I have received two bank statements since Christmas and neither shows that you cashed the check which you should have received when we opened presents.  On M & G's Christmas tree I hung two envelopes; one for ***** and one for you and Mrs. Emo EMAW - each had a $50 check enclosed because I just didn't know what to get for presents.
 
Let me know if you did not get the check and I will cancel that one and send you a new one!  Sorry - Grandma"

So I write back:

"Hey Grandma, I didn't cash it, and I won't. I'm using it as a bookmark in the book you got me.  No need to give money for gifts.  Your company, good stories, and wisdom I value much more.

Love, Emo EMAW"

She replies:

"How nice of you to say those things about me!  I must say you are stretching it a bit saying that I have "wisdom" though!  Perhaps I have absorbed  bit more in my 91+ years than I realized!  Anyway, I just wanted to be sure that the check was not floating around someplace and would louse up my bookkeeping if some strange person cashed it eventually.  I wish we could visit more some time - would love to hear about your travels, etc.       Grandma"
