<prompt> Human: Wife and I took our chance on buying a storage unit at auction last weekend. Its gonna take me weeks to go through all of the contents. But among other things Ive found so far are 2 cashiers checks for around 700.00. Am I entitled to that money since the previous owner surrendered all of the contents of the locker when they failed to pay the bill for 4 years? Assistant: Some banks void the checks after a certain amount of time. Are they not made out to anyone already?Human: They are made out to the previous owner of the unit.  <response>: no you arent entitled to it since its made out to someone else. you wouldnt be able to cash that check unless you want to contact the person and ask them to sign the check over to you. pretty sure that will go well.
