Wrongful Serving of Summon Notice

Guest (Querist) 23 November 2008 This query is : Resolved
My client has been wrongfully made a party to a dishonoured cheque issued by someone and my client has been served a summon notice u/s 68 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. Now my client wants to teach a lesson to the notice serving party for mental harassment and for monetary compensation for advocate's fee etc. What could be the best way to fight against the opposite party ?

If your client want to get remedy, he can approaching a civil court for filing Suit under tort for compensation will do.

If your client want to punish him, then definitely defamation is the offence
