The time it takes for Wells Fargo to clear a check depends on the history of the person who wrote the check, how much the check was written for and the time or the year the check was written.

Yes, it is possible for someone to sue you if you try to cash a personal check they wrote you without their consent. They may claim that you are committing fraud or violating their trust by attempting to cash the check without their permission.

No. The fact that it didn't "clear" the bank means there either wasn't enough money in the account it was written from, or whoever wrote the check called the bank and cancelled (voided) it. If you deposited a check in your account, and it doesn't clear, then you need to subtract what you added in when you made the deposit because it's as though it doesn't exist. Contact the check writer (if you can) to get a new one. If it's a deadbeat who intentionally wrote a check with insufficient funds, the authorities (and the banks) take a very dim view of this as it constitutes fraud.
