No reply can be given without facts.  If same transaction creates two offence then two trials can be there.

1. Cheque bouncing case u/s 138 N.I.Act, is a private criminal complaint and CANNOT be filed in the same application with other criminal offences.

2.  Both CANNOT be heard concurrently and trial will also take independently.
