In this case scenario, there is “Stop Payment Order”. Normally, a stop payment order is a form of request that is made within financial institutions particularly for the purpose of cancelling a check or may be for payment that has not yet been processed. Basically, a stop payment order is simply being issued by an account holder and so it can be enacted only if the check payment has not yet been processed by the recipient.
