In this state, it is illegal to pass a bad check. If the business has a policy, I would follow it. If it does not, I would try to call the person on the phone and ask that person to come down and make the check good. If the person balked, I would remind him or her that passing a bad check is a felony punishable by prison. If I could not get hold of that person, I would turn the check over to the cops.

A cashier's check is not a cancelled check unless it has been cashed. A cancelled check is one that has already been cashed. Once you cash a cashier's check, the bank keeps it and you don't get it back. If you write a personal check, once it is cashed, that check will come back to you in your statement as the physical item which will be a cancelled check - or you will get an image of the cancelled check.
