I'd have asked the bos to come down and sort it out at least. And if
you gave them a check cancel it.

Not terribly good advice, as the company can sue on the cancelled cheque
alone and win.


Technically yes. They would win the amount of the cheque but if you have a
valid counterclaim this would act as a set-off against that amount so in
practice the cheque doesn't really count for anything.


Yes. That's a better answer than mine.
