That's "checks" and "notes" to the English speaking world. I must say, that was the single most difficult to endure presentation I have ever had the displeasure of being awake through. evar.
"Holder in Due Course"

That is all.

I wouldn't have lasted 3 hours. I think everything I need to know about commercial paper can be condensed into 10 minutes with a useful glossary of terms.
I have to go to a training course every 3 years to keep my analyst license. This time, they tell me that if I teach the course it still counts. It has to be a 3-hour course. Why does anyone think that 3 hours of a boring lecture would be better than a short 30-minute one with "listen up, folks, this is what you need to know"?

Welcome to my world.
Just say "UCC1" and "UCC3" a bunch and you should sail through.
Oh, and make sure you spell "endorsement" as "indorsement."
And remember that checks don't have makers. Contracts have makers. Checks aren't contracts.
And that the last indorser on a check is giving a guarantee that all indorsements are genuine.
And that the bank of first deposit is guaranteeing that the final indorsement is genuine or that the person named as final indorser has received credit for said check.
I'll see if I can't come up with any more painfully obvious stuff for you.

A check maybe considered a contract, it just depends on the state laws. If there is a dispute between two parties and one writes the other a check and in the memo line writes "Payment in Full" that could be a binding agreement.

Heheheheh, he said tity.
say gentleman A is a landlord. Genteman B is the renter. There was a dispute over how much closing out their business dealing would cost. If B wrote a check for 1200 smokes, and signed in the memo line "paid in full", and A accepted the check and cashed it.
now A is suing B for more money. B can be saved, depending on what state he lives in, due to his writing "paid in full" in the memo line. A agreed to the original terms buy accepting the check and cashing it.
1200 smokes? That's like 60 packs, ergo, 6 cartons.
What if he doesn't smoke, then what? Can you make it out in samolians? I'm not sure of the exchange rate.
Euros have the tiny peeners, right?
no, they have the "turtle neck" peeners.
That's an interesting defense to liability. Call it the "Eric B. and Rakim" defense, I guess.
The point remains-while a contract may be written on a check, the check itself is not a contract.

Thinkin of a master plan
Cuz ain't nuthin but sweat inside my hand
So I dig into my pocket, all my money is spent
So I dig deeper but still comin up with lint
So I start my mission- leave my residence
Thinkin how could I get some dead presidents
I need money, I used to be a stick-up kid
So I think of all the devious things I did
I used to roll up, this is a hold up, ain't nuthin funny
Stop smiling, be still, don't nuthin move but the money
But now I learned to earn cos I'm righteous
I feel great! so maybe I might just
Search for a 9 to 5, if I strive
Then maybe I'll stay alive
So I walk up the street whistlin this
Feelin out of place cos, man, do I miss
A pen and a paper, a stereo, a tape of
Me and Eric B, and a nice big plate of
Fish, which is my favorite dish
But without no money it's still a wish
Cos I don't like to dream about gettin paid
So I dig into the books of the rhymes that I made
To now test to see if I got pull
Hit the studio, cos I'm paid in full

okay
I am jealous of Pat's neatly trimmed, non-euro penis. his parents did him right
but like most general rules, there is an exception. This was actually covered in said boring-a$$ lecture. BTW, you are referring to the "full accord and satisfaction rule." If the payee gets a check so marked, even if some doofus in his company deposits it, he can (so long as he doesn't wait too long) say to himself "waitaflippinminute," return the funds to the person who gave him that check, and they start over from their original positions.
