It probably varies from state to state, but in some states, one day past the due date is/can be considered delinquent. However, most companies won't repossess at that point. Most companies wait until at least 30, and if you have called and kept in contact with them, they won't actually start repossession proceedings until 60 or 90 days.

Is it legal to put stop payment o a check?

Yes. It is perfectly legal for the person who issued the check to put a stop payment on it. However, if the check was issued to pay for some goods or services offered by someone or for a loan, the receiving entity also has a legal claim and hence can file a police complaint against you for not making the payment. So, you need to talk to the person to whom you gave the check to settle the amount amicably before you issue the stop payment.
