an accused after being convicted in a cheque bounce case preffered an appeal before session court.The complainant had to go out of station on hearing date.He asked his counsel to appear with clear instruction not to compromise.The counsel could not appear due to some emergency piece of work.The counsel before leaving the city asked his senior counsel to appear and conveyed the instruction by complainant to him.The senior counsel which was not engaged and authorised by complainant accepted the cheque amount in court on hearing date and thus compromised the matter.what is the legal course of action complainant can take on account of law prescribed?

you have got your money back . consider your self lucky . close the chapter and move on in life . senior counsel has acted in your best interest . if matter had gone on the accused would have prolonged case for 2 years and then gone in HC .
