Arguments on summoning heard.
I have gone through the entire record including the
complaint and the documents. It is alleged that accused has
issued the cheque in question to the complainant to discharge his
liability. On its presentation the same was dishonored. Therefore,
demand notice was sent to the accused by the complainant.
Despite service/ deemed service of said notice, accused has failed
to make the payment as per provisions of Negotiable Instruments
Act.
Complaint is filed within the prescribed period of
limitation. In my considered opinion, prima facie there is
sufficient material available on record to summon the accused.
Hence, accused be summoned for offence u/s 138 of
Negotiable Instruments Act on filing of PF/RC. In the event the

that “accused can make an application for compounding of the
offence at the first and second hearing of the case and if such an
application is made, compounding may be allowed by the Court
without imposing any costs on the accused.”
