As you have rightly stated the name of the Proprietor who might have issued the cheque, I do not think that you have to worry about the mistake stated to have occured in the complaint in respect of the firm name. Peoprietorship concern is not an independent legal entity different from the Proprietor as in the case of Companies and Directors. Therefore, your complaint is in essence against the Proprietor whose name and details have been stated correctly in the complaint and as such you may proceed with the case.
