No, wife cannot be prosecuted for the cheque issued by husband, as the cheque is not signed by the wife. even though the Liability is joint ..Wiife cannot be prosecuted. However she will be liable to pay the money if the lendor files a civil suit for recovery of money under pronote.

Dear In your case, there is no chance to prosecute the wife under section of 138 N.I.Act, because she did not signed on cheque. But she is having responsibility on Promissory which was executed with her husband jointly.
