20-Jan-2023 (In Cheque Bounce Law)
Can I file criminal case against cheque dated 18th & 20th October 2017 was dis honoured due to insufficient fund on dated 19th January 2017. The cheques were bounced already for the same reason, 2nd time had deposited the same on above said dates were been bounced due to insufficient funds. Please advice how to move forward step by step and the charges levied for the same.
Assuming the cheque is dated 18 & 20th OCt.2016 and you have the return memo dated Jan.17 you have a good chance of filing the case. You have to immediately send a legal notice ie within 19th feb.17 to initiate legal proceedings.

The procedure is: Deposit the cheque and if it bounces by the Bank, that is it is returned as "insufficient funds", then Bank will give you the endorsement. Within 15 days of receiving this endorsement, a legal notice must be sent to the defaulter giving him 30 days time to make the payment. If within 30 days he/ she does not make payment then you can proceed with filing of a Complaint as per the Negotiable Instruments Act. For legal fees, please approach a lawyer in person.
