In criminal cases no mistakes are allowed.

 

Process may be issued , you will spend money in court on advocate and run around for no of years and at the end the case is dismissed on such mistajes. If not by trial court than by revision courts.

You can do one thing, issue another notice rectifying the mistake, by referring the notice already issued, otherwise accused can defend saying that notice is not issued to me.

I had done the same mistake, but I issued a notice to the accused stating that "  with reference to the so and so notice dtd:-- in the said notice thru., oversight so and so name is wrongly typed. Hence it may kindly be read as___" .  Accused raised his defense that notice was not issued to me, but my legal notice which was issued to rectifying the mistake helped me, Finally accused comrpmised with the complaint and paid the money.

Only compromise and not won the case.

 

It does not mean what you say is legally allowed.

 

To morrow some body may kill some body and say sorry it was mistake. All convicts now in jails say same thing that what they did was mistake. over sight . Sorry big sorry.

Hi, 

In fact , the cause of action in cheque bounce case starts on the expiary of 15th day of notice period, if your this statutory period is still pending you can rectify your mistake and pass on to to accused, otherwise he may get benefit by raising a probable defence on this ground.

I agree with Mr. Rajoo

advocate rajeev is it is so called a rejoinder notice

R Trivedi (advocate.dma@gmail.com)     01 June 2013

You say name of the Proprietor is wrongly mentioned ? Does it mean that you behaved as proprietor or you sent on behalf of the prop firm without claiming yourself as proprietor ?

 If it is the later part then please prepare an authority letter from the actual proprietor before the date of notice, you may have to prove that you had authority to send the notice on behalf of the firm.

 

Is the cheque still in validity ?

Re jointer notice maybe sent to in time other wise case is consider in trial period evidence.

madhu mittal (director)     20 June 2013

Respected Sir,

There is a recent decision of Supreme Court, Msr Leathers vs S. Palaniappan And Anr. on 26 September, 2012 in which it was stated that another notice can be issued. So if there is still validity period of cheque is left, please be on safer side, relodge the cheque and issue another notice, correct from every aspect. But First go through this citation.
