Your query is not clear. If you have issued a cheque which has bounced a prima facie case under S. 138 of NI Act holds. All your points with evidence will have to be presented to the Court and it will be for the Court to decide accordingly . Meanwhile you may issue a clear notice to the Builder putting forward all your claims and asking not to present the cheque, if not done so far.
