Compromise Under NIA 138

Sir,

In my case, the complainant want to compromise and settle the matter amicably. Complainant is innocent, but his friend forced him to file a case under section 138 NI, now the complainant is afraid of false allegation. Now what should I do sir,. amount involved in this case is Rs.7,000/- which has been paide by me in advance. After getting back his money, complainant friend coerced him to   submit the cheque to the bannk and it got bounced.

After paying the amount, self requested the complainant to return the cheque, but he didnt do that and handedover the cheque to one of his friend.

I have received the summons to appear before Belgaum court on 18.11.2011

 

Your valuable advise is very much needed, as am totally innocent of this matter, and this is the first case

during my entire life

 

with regards

varghese

Dear Sir,

Don't be feared of merely served with summons, just engage an advocate and file vakalath, in the mean while collect all the documents relating to case and brief your advocate, the learned counsel will  take a call how to disprove the material allegations and debt is not legally enforceable.

simply dishonouring of cheque does not attract the offence & penalty under NI act, the complainant  has to satisfy the Hon'ble Court that the "debit is an legally enorceable" taking your peculiar situation if you are able to prove that u have paid then there can't be a case under NI act.

the amount which is mentioned in the cheque needs to substantiated with proof  of document lest the case fails.

 Regards,

S.Sateesh

Give proof of all amounts are settled and also send an legal notice for false allegations.

Go for discharge petition as far as your 138 case is concerned.

No discharge provision in NI 138 cases. You can however the demolish the story by clever cross.
