I'm not too worried about this one, but thought I would do some quick research and found this forum.
I received rents today from my rental, and the check was $110 over. So I called and she said she doesn't know what she was thinking and it was a mistake and that she'd get a correct check right out to me. But it sounded a little rehearsed. So right now, I guess I'm leaving it for what it is, and assuming that she was going to be a little late on having rent and did this instead of asking to be late or paying penalty. But I'm wondering if she was thinking about the urban-myth of overpaying a speeding ticket so the court can't cash it or fine you. I'm also wondering what would have happened if I had cashed it, I'm guess she wouldn't have had the extra funds and it would have bounced, but would that have caused any legal problems for me?
