to overdraw

from Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856)
TO OVERDRAW. To draw bills or cheeks upon an individual, bank or other 
corporation, for a greater amount of funds than the party who draws is 
entitled to. 
     2. When a person has overdrawn his account without any intention to do 
so, and afterwards gives a check on a bank, the holder is required to 
present it, and on refusal of payment to give notice to the maker, in order 
to hold him bound for it; but when the maker had overdrawn the bank 
knowingly, and had no funds there between the time the check was given and 
its presentment, the notice is not requisite. 2 N. & McC. 433.
