Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas

Promissory Note

Have an unpaid promissory not and looking at going to small claims court in Texas. We have cancelled check for $3000. Borrower completed promissory note and agreed to repay $4200 in 10 days. Question is does this fall into usury, should we just try to collect the $3000 + interest on the promissory note of 10%.
