First of all you appear before court and participate in the case.

You can refute the charges stating that this signautre is not yours and can ask for referring this cheque for an opinion by an handwriting expert from the forensic department and get the case dismissed if the report is in your favor.

You can look for the judgment at the stage of final argument and not now itself.

In a case where the cheque is returned unpaid by the bank on the ground that the signature of the drawer on the cheque differs from his specimen signature on record of the bank, a case of dishonour of cheque punishable under Section 138 may be made out if other ingredients of the offence are satisfied.

The reason for dishonour of cheque can be either "insufficient funds" or "signature differs", it can't be both.
