Respected Experts,
Greetings to all.
I humbly seek your legal guidance and support. I lost my Central Government job due to a case filed under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881. However, the matter is purely personal and private in nature, and has no connection whatsoever to the integrity, conduct, or functioning of the Government of India office where I was employed.
My matter is now pending before the Hon’ble Telangana State High Court and is listed on 04-06-2025.
I earnestly request any kind advocate or legal expert to kindly share landmark Supreme Court judgments that uphold the principle that cases under Section 138 NI Act pertain to private financial disputes and do not amount to misconduct affecting government service or integrity.
Your valuable inputs may help me restore my position and dignity. I shall remain ever grateful to those who guide or support me in this regard.
Warm regards,
