Cheque bounce case

Hi respected lawyers,

My father helped a lady 4-5 years back with money. On asking for repayment, she gave cheques and returned partial amount slowly. We exchanged cheques for remaining amount 2-3 times and when she paid nothing, we bounced cheques of the remaining amount and filed a case. After an year, she again took money from my father multiple times, promising this would help her to take out the whole amount due from her sources. Unfortunately, my father trusted her and gave her money again. Again, she did not give back the additional amount. Now we have two big amounts, one for which cheque bounce case is running and other amount which is gone through bank account but we don't have any cheques for it. She had heated arguments with me and my father over phone multiple times and also not coming to the court. NBW is gone thrice till now, recently sent to SP office of her city. For the additional amount, we are planning to give legal notice and file a recovery suit. She is writing us that she would file different cases against me and my father if we go legal. Can we inform this to court or police? She is trying to dominate us even after not paying anything and not coming to the court.

Cheque dishonour case cannot be clubbed with further advancement of  money by your father. Let the complaint case be proceeded by your counsel. Execution of NBWs is the responsibility of police.

If she has not issued cheque for further amount stated to have been taken no case can be initiated except for filing of a suit for recovery if your father has made payment through Bank or any other mode which can be substantiated. 

Exchange of heated arguments over phone is no crime.

Police may (not sure) initiate a legal action on written threat extended by the lady, which depends upon various other circumstances that cannot be presumed. 

Consult your lawyer who is well aware about facts and circumstances of the case(s), an able, competent, intelligent enough and duty bound to satisfy your question(s) / query(ies).

Your father can file a money recovery suit by first issuing a legal demand notice for the additional loan.

You may have to follow it up through the concerned police to execute non bailable warrant as per procedures.

Filing a counter case is possible if she files a false case?

P. Venu (Advocate)     16 June 2026

any suggestion as to counter case depends upon the nature of the case as well the reliefs. The wiser course is in meeting the alleged false case, if at all filed filed, on merits.
