I don't see why this is a issue, the check is not money it self, the bank has the money, surely the bank can issue the funds to the correct person.
This seems to be the crux of the issue:
So it seems that this offer has been made, but on the condition that if the original cheque is ever found and cashed Kavaratzis would be on the hook for it. Kavaratzis contends that that's not fair as he wasn't the one who lost the original.
Kavaratzis should not be liable.
If the original cheque is ever found, and someone else attempts to cash it, that would be fraud. Now that Kavaratzis has requested a new cheque, if the old one ever makes it to their possession and they attempt to cash it, that would also be fraud. We figured this out DECADES ago, that's why cheques have a holding period.
Whoever is cashing the cheque is responsible to make sure it clears before exchanging it for money, and the original cheque should be annulled so it cannot be cashed.
Exactly. I do not understand why this is an issue at all.
TD having to do their job is the issue.
Right, this check is not a bearer bond, its made out to a singular person. There shouldn't be any issue here. It's not 1850 where it takes weeks to verify a check
Nope, it's 2023, where people seem to have forgotten how cheques work.
