I had a single cheque bounce case filed against me. The police even registered it. But we both sorted things out before the first hearing. The other party gave me a court order showing the case was dropped. I asked his lawyer to return the bounced cheque, but he said it was useless now and the court wouldn’t accept it. Is he right?

The lawyer is likely correct. Once a case is dropped, the cheque becomes irrelevant and the court will likely not accept it. However, it’s advisable to consult with your own lawyer to confirm and understand the legal implications of the situation.

My business faced a cash crunch during demonetisation, causing two cheques to bounce when I paid my supplier. I made up the difference in cash and have receipts. However, instead of settling his account, the supplier deposited my security cheque, which also bounced. He then filed a cheque bounce case. I have evidence proving his dishonest actions. How can I defend myself against this case and hold him accountable?

My friend, I’m caught in a tough spot. I’m facing a bounced cheque case, but the cheque itself has never been shown in court! They’re relying on a police report and statement that says the cheque was lost. This case is dragging on for 7 years now because I was studying abroad. What should I do? Settle or fight? If I fight, what are my chances?

Namaste sir, this is Shashi, as mentioned in the email subject. I worked for JUSTADZ.COM, an advertising firm, as a marketing executive for about two months. The company promised to pay me a travel allowance and my salary through post-dated cheques. However, when the cheque matured, it bounced. We contacted the owner, but he kept asking us to wait for a few days. We waited patiently, but when our team called again for the salary, he used abusive language. Now the cheque has expired.

I’m a commission agent (kaccha arthia) in Ladwa, Kurukshetra, Haryana. Two years ago, in 2014-15, I sold paddy worth ₹10 lakh to a limited company in Delhi through their buyer in Ladwa. The company issued three checks of ₹3.3 lakh each on July 8, 2016. Two checks from Corporation Bank bounced due to insufficient funds, and one from ICICI Bank bounced because the account was blocked due to an NPA declaration. My check date was July 28, and a check bounced in May due to insufficient funds. When I checked the company’s bank account, it appeared they issued a new check after an earlier one bounced, indicating fraudulent intent. What legal options do I have? Can I approach the National Company Law Tribunal as a creditor and pursue company liquidation?

My friend and I have a joint bank account. We both signed a cheque, but it bounced due to insufficient funds. The person we wrote the cheque to is now threatening legal action against us.
