Yes, they actually do. As representatives of the school district, they are charged with the safety and security of students and the school. If they have reasonable suspicion that the bag contains an illegal or dangerous substance, they may ask you to open the bag for it to be inspected. Many school districts have establish procedures for the search of student bags and containers.

The assumption can be made that the question is asked by a student or the guardian of a student whose bag was searched. Teachers are protected in large part from any action they take that is within reasonable expectations that are committed in the interest of safety and security or students, faculty and staff, others on school grounds, and property. If your bag was searched, the teacher who did so will undoubtedly have had a legitimate reason to do so.

While not directly related, any school official may search a student's locker for the same reason, and administrators may search all or select random lockers to ensure compliance with district rules. There is no presumption of privacy.

Check your state's school code for specifics.

Who has the legal right to void a check from a client?

The legal right to void a check typically belongs to the issuer of the check, which is the client who wrote it. They can void the check before it is cashed or deposited, often by notifying their bank or marking the check as void. Additionally, a bank may also have the authority to void a check under certain circumstances, such as if it is reported lost or stolen. However, once a check is cashed or deposited, the ability to void it generally ceases.
