Can a bank accept and pay a post-dated check?

Yes. According to Section 4.401(c) of the Texas Business and Commerce Code, a bank may pay a check that is otherwise properly payable, even though payment was made before the date of the check. If a stop payment order is given to the bank prior to the date of the check, which describes the check with reasonable certainty, then the bank may not charge against the account.
