Yes, you can return a cashier's check made out to a payee, but the process may vary depending on the bank's policies and whether the check has been cashed or deposited. If the check is still in your possession and hasn't been cashed, you can usually request a refund from the issuing bank. However, once the check is cashed, you typically cannot reverse the transaction, and you would need to address any issues directly with the payee. Always check with your bank for specific procedures and requirements.
