This can be acheieved using two ways.
1. using a validation rule
2. using a page layout and a record Type
1. Using validation.
Checkbox__c == True && PRIORVALUE(DateField__c) != DateField__c
2. Using a page layout and a record type.
Create a new record type and page layout(in this page layout make that date field read only)
On checking the Checkbox__c create a workflow rule and update the record type to the read only record type.
If this solves your answer mark is as answer.
Thanks

I am building the login like this but i am getting error: Error:Formula result is data type (Boolean), incompatible with expected data type (Date).
SDR_HAndoffDate is checkbox, Custom Date field is SDR_Handoff_Date__c
SDR_Handoff_Date__c == True && PRIORVALUE(SDR_Handoff_Date__c) != SDR_Handoff_Date__c
Can you suggest?
