ORDER BELOW APPLICATION EXH.42
1. This is the application for an interim compensation filed
u/sec.143-A of the Negotiable Instrument Act.
2. Accused have objected the application vide detailed reply
Exh.43.
3. Heard both sides. Before going to the merits of the
application, it is pertinent to note that the complaint under section 138
of the Negotiable Instrument Act is filed on 13.11.2017 that is prior to
amendment of the Act by insertion of section 143-A. The provisions
under section 143-A is inserted with effect from 01.09.2018. It is but
obvious being criminal remedy and nature of litigation, the amendment
brought by way of insertion of section 143-A of the Act is prospective in
nature. The Act has not given retrospective effect to the provision to
apply the same to the pending matters. Therefore, on this legal point
the application deserves to be rejected. Hence, I pass following order.
O R D E R
1) The application is rejected.
2) Order dictated and pronounced in open court.
