A case was filed against accused under 138 NI Act for his cheque worth Rs. 10 Lacs was dishonoured.
Accused and Complainant entered into compromise. Accused agreed in the Hon'ble court to pay the amount in two equal installments to the complainant. Subsequently Hon'ble court passed an order that since both the parties entered into a compromise and accused agreed to pay the amount. Hence accused was ordered to pay the first installment of Rs. 5 Lacs on 15th of November, 2015 and the second installment of Rs. 5 Lacs on 15th of December, 2015 and case was disposed off.
The accused did not pay the said amount to the complainant till date.

Plz suggest the proper way out.

Complainant can file a case under Contempt of Court Act in High Court or file a fresh case under section 420 IPC in the judicial Magistrate Court.
