Under the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881 on the lapse of 15 days from the receipt of legal notice to the drawer of the cheque a complaint under section 138 needs to be filed within 30 days thereafter. Warrants can be issued only by the courts in case the court is satisfied that accused is evading summons. No it cannot be transferred to the fast track court

in case of no reply to statutory notice to cheque bounce, you may proceed to file the case for cheque bounce. unless otherwise, the proceedings under cheque bounce case are summary in nature, meaning that they get tried quick.

Warrants are issued by the courts. If the accused has not replied to your legal notice 15 days frok receipt then you can file a cheque bounce complaint against him within 30 days after that.
No there is no procedure to tranafer it into fast track.
However cheque bounce case is itself a summary trial.
