Madam,u worried of false case being a Lawyer ???
 

Kiran Kumar (Lawyer)     05 April 2010

u r a lawyer, why r u so worried.

 

facts, as stated by you, speak in your favour.

 

if the circumstances demand then you can go in for quashing, otherwise during trial the complainant will have to prove legal liability against you..........if there was some legal liability only then you could have issued cheque.

 

compare the cheque nos., account nos., signature etc.....though certain things you will be able to compare during trial only with the permission of court.

 

if the complainant has filed a false complaint then you have remedy to prosecute him for malacious prosecution etc.

 

and do talk to your bank authorities, if someone has got issued another cheque book from your account under false identity, it could be the complainant himself who got issued the cheque book.....if some lapse is there on the part of bank authorities then they can also be prosecuted under relevant provisions.

What our colleagues have mentioned is right .... If U being a lawyer are terrified on this issue ... How will U be able to help Ur clients ????

U fail to mention whether someone has filed police  complaint or has filed 138 N.I  Act complaint in MM court ...

If this seems to be police complaint ... then it is useless .... If there is 138 complaint filed against U in MM court ... then U would have received the mandatory notice before .... U had opportunity to reply to the notice ststing ur grounds ... If U have done so .... It will certaily be helpful during the trial .... Moreover U say the Account from which cheque has been issued does not belong to U ... the Bank authorities will get the records .... so there is nothing to fear .... U have ample grounds .... But u have have to bide by the time .... cause ur grounds of defence would be proved only at trial ....

Vinod kashyap (Advocate & Legal advisor)     05 April 2010

U should go for quash the complaint

Meenakshi (Lawyer)     05 April 2010

I m not the one against whom the complaint is filed.

its just for a clearercommunication i used my name.

The case which is come to me with less merits .

And suryanarayan and dharmesh- I needed more clarity not your stupid and foolish comments. Lawyers can have times of difficulties as well.

Meenakshi (Lawyer)     05 April 2010

Dear Kiran Kumar and Dharmesh,

Legal notice  sent in oct 2009 and complaint is filed u/s 138 in december 2009.,summons received feb 2009 No libaility at all can be proved.

And the account No is not my  client`s at all. Coincidentally he has an account in the same bank but the account and signature both are not his..........

My question is what charges under IPC can be used while drafting the complaint....Its too late for F.I.R

Your query gives any person impression that you personally got into the trouble. Please use restraint language in responding to comments of our friends. They are spending their time, energy and using their brains just for your sake and with good intention to suggest legal solutions to the querist. Being a lawyer, you should love the society, Mr.Suryanarayana and Mr.Dharmesh are not your college friends. If you don't find their comments suitable, just leave them. Your curt reply is certainly a shock to all of us. Because being advocates, we don't want any advocate to become a victim. With that concern only, Mr.Suryanarayana and Mr.Dharmesh have pitied you. Now I pity you for a difference.

Dharmesh Manjeshwar (Advocate/Lawyer)     06 April 2010

I appreciate the concern shown by you ..... Mr. Gurunarayana Rao ....

Someone had to do this ....

Jatin Sapra 9312223345,Delhi (Advocate)     06 April 2010

Hi,

Mr Rao replied you in perfect manner and word.As far as your case is concern there  are no. of cases klike this .

I think you have to move an application before the magistrate concern for discharging your client  and further you can move an application under section 340 Cr.P.C against the complainant.

Jithendra.H.J (Lawyer)     06 April 2010

need not to worry file discharge applicaiton as stated by jatin
