' (a) 'Issues.' — A person issues a check when, as drawer thereof or as a person who signs a check as drawer in a representative capacity or as agent of the person whose name appears thereon as the principal drawer or obligor, the person delivers it or causes it to be delivered to a person who thereby acquires a right against the drawer with respect to the check. One who draws a check with intent that it be so delivered is deemed to have issued it if the delivery occurs. (b) 'Passes.' — A person passes a check when, being a payee, holder or bearer of a check which previously has been or purports to have been drawn and issued by another, the person delivers it, for a purpose other than collection to a third person who thereby acquires a right with respect thereto.11 Del.
