If a check is made out to you and you endorse it over to another person is it considered a third party check?

Yes. It would be classified as a third party check and the person who cashes it is at risk. The bank will cash the check if the third party has an account in good standing. However, if the check turns out to be fraudulent the funds will be withdrawn from the accounts of the person who cashed it.


What is a single party check?

In regards to check cashing, a single or one party check is a check in which the check writer and beneficiary are the same person. In other words, if I write a check from my bank account to myself, I am writing a single party check. Contrast this with a two party check in which one person or company writes a check to a second person or company, or a three party check in which one person or company writes a check to a second person or company and a third party guarantees some part of the check (usually the funds).


Is a check from your job a Third Party Check?

A third party check is a check which is signed over to an individual not named on the front of the check as either the maker (entity writing the check) or the payee (to whom the check is payable). The payee signs the check over to another individual, who is the "third party."


Can a store accept third party checks?

They CAN, but very few DO accept "third party" checks. A "third-party" check is a check that someone else wrote to you, and now you're trying to get a third party - the merchant - to accept it. Most merchants refuse to accept them, because if the check bounces, you as the purchaser aren't on the hook for the value. Back in the day when most people were honest, there wasn't much of a risk. Now, when there's a significant minority of people who are NOT honest, there's too much risk. If somebody else wrote a check to you, then you should deposit it in your account, or take it to that person's bank to have it cashed. Don't expect the merchant to also provide banking services to you.

If I sign an acknowledgement of assignment of judgment am I giving up my right to collect?

If you are the 'creditor' of judgment and you sign for a third party to collect, then YES, your right to collect is given up. Because once that is signed you just signed over your judgment over to the third party, and it is considered THEIR judgment now. BUT you will still get your money judgment from the third party.

What is a second party check?

A "second party check" is a check where the payee is depositing or cashing the check. For example, Bob Smith writes a check to his brother John Smith. John Smith is the payee, (second party) who deposits the check into an account in his own name, or cashes the check. If John Smith wants to endorse the check on the back to a different person, that other person would be a third party. The check would now be a "third party check." Banks are likely to not accept this type of check if the third party tried to cash it, because they cannot verify endorsements.
