Hello Experts,
My query is about check dishonour 138 B. Actually we had filed a case on a person about 138 B in 2013 and as per court judgement we WON the case now. But now accused goes on upper court and does appeales against the case.
So my query is about concerned.
1) What should we do now ?
2) Should we hire a new lawyer again or our earlier lawyer can be continue ?
3) Since accused appealed now regarding concern case, so is there any issue for me about my Visa Processing ?
Please share your valuable thoughts.
Thanks and regards,
Varun
1) You can wait and see what the petition is about and if it is rational.
2) In many cases, it can be beneficial to have a new lawyer take a look at your case. While your trial lawyer may have been focused on narrowing down the issues in order to build a cohesive defense, identifying your grounds for appeal requires a broader perspective. However, you can also stick to your earlier lawyer.
3) Yes, an ongoing case may affect your visa process. However, a refusal, or ineligibility, under section 214(b) is for that specific application, so once a case is closed, the consular section cannot take any further action. There is no appeal process.
