Too much fluid in the system? Is the brake lever pivot sticking?

Also what happens if you manually pull the lever up so it is definitely not applying the brake then ride it without ever using the rear brake. Does it come on by itself or only stay on after use?Try bungying the lever up while testing this to prevent it going on.Does the wheel turn freely while up on the stand?
