Who has the liability of endorsement on a deposited check?
The payee, who is the person the check is written to. If they don't sign the back of the check before they deposit it, then the bank the check is drawn on (where the person who wrote the check banks at) can return the check for up to 7 years after it is deposited into the payees account. If that happens, then the bank where the payee banks at (where the check was deposited) will usually debit your account for the amount of the check. Also, if a check is made out to more than one person and includes the word "and" between the persons names, then both must sign or it must be deposited into an account owned by all payees listed on the check and stamped by the bank. If the word "or" is between the names, then only one payee need sign it. If it is made payable to a business or trust, then it must go into a business or trust account. It cannot go into the personal account of the business owner or of a trustee.
How do you write a check for deposit to another account?

Can you cash a check made out to a business?
Absolutely not. Checks made payable to a business may only be deposited into that businesses account. Cashing checks made payable to any business would open the door ( wide open ) for all kinds of criminal behavior. There have even been instances where an employee of a company has opened a secret account under his employers name and deposited checks into this secret account that only he or she has access to. I would assume any bank would immediately call the police if a person were to present a check made out to a business and try to cash it.

If a person has a check dated on 1-4-2012 for 1000 dollars can we say that he has 1000 in his pocket now?
Technically the money is not in their pocket. The check must be deposited or cashed by the person it is written out to, or otherwise endorsed. If the payee does not cash or deposit the check, they cannot give it out like bills of currency. When the check is deposited, the money is taken out of the check writer's account and deposited to the person it is written out to. If you cash it instead, the institution gives you their money and takes money out of the check writer's account.

How can a check made out to the decedent's estate be cashed?
A check made payable to the estate of a deceased person can be a problem. Legally, it must be cashed by the court appointed estate representative, i.e., the executor or administrator. If there is no other property owned by the decedent and no probate was filed, and if the decedent owned a joint bank account with another person, the bank may allow the check to be deposited in that account. However, if that doesn't work then a probate will need to be filed to establish the identity of the person who can legally cash the check.
What does returned deposited item mean?
A bounced check. Probably a check that you deposited into your account was no good so the bank returned it and deducted the money from your account.
