Mack writes a check to his maid, Marianne, in payment for services rendered. Marianne indorses the check in blank and gives the check to her masseuse, Janet, in exchange for a neck massage. Without indorsing the check, Janet gives the check to Martin, her newspaper carrier, in payment for the next four months' delivery charges. Martin indorses with a special indorsement and negotiates the check to his church, St. Mark. The church indorses the check and deposits it in its bank account. If Mack's bank later dishonors the check, to whom may St. Mark's look for recovery?

Mack, Marianne, and Martin

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that in this scenario if the bank dishonors the check St. Mark can look for recovery from Mack, Marianne, and Martin. This is due to the fact that they all endorsed the check. This is because by endorsing the check you are signing the back of it which means that you are making it payable to someone else, and if the check is not accepted you are taking responsibility for paying that person. Which Mack, Marianne, and Martin all endorsed the check.
