Yes you absolutely can. Never, never write a check out and sign even if you were given permission to do so. Forgery is a felony. Both the person who committed the forgery and the person who gave him the rights to do so would be prosecuted legally.

Yes, forging checks is illegal regardless of whether permission was given, and can result in criminal charges and potential jail time. Even with permission, altering someone's signature on a check constitutes fraud and is considered a criminal offense.
