This is legal as long as the person cashing/depositing the check is the payee and it is signed by the owner of the bank account or an authorized signer on the account. It doesn't matter who writes out the check, it matters who signs it.
An endorsed check is a check that was written to someone without a checking account, or someone who could not deposit the check, that has been signed by that person so that someone else can deposit it for them.
Full Endorsement
Generally no unless the original payee has signed the check over to another person.

No. A check can be cashed only by the individual to whom the check is made out (issued) to. No one else can cash it even if it is signed by the person to whom the check was given. If you try to do so, it is an illegal activity and you can be jailed for it. But, you can deposit that check into the account of the person to whom the check was given if he has signed the back of the check (endorsed it) and no one will stop you if you do this and it is perfectly legal.
It is a theft. Whether it is a felony depends on the amount of the check and the laws of the state and/or the federal government.
When you forge a check, you are committing check fraud which is punishable by a maximum of 5 years in jail and a fine of $10,000.00. If it is a Federal of State check you would be convicted of a felony and would lose the right to vote and to bear arms.
It Depends: Yes - If the person who is going to cash it has a legal power of attorney from the person to whom the check belongs originally No - If a legal power of attorney is not available. A check can be cashed only by the person to whom it is issued and if anyone else tries to cash it (without a power of attorney), it is a felony and the person who tries it can be jailed for doing so.
