05-Jul-2023 (In Cheque Bounce Law)
I am complainant in cheque bounce case , proprietor is my brother he gave me authority in writing on paper that I can file and proceed case against accused whether such authority letter is valid or general or specific power of attorney is needed
Authority letter is sufficient. Get it on the letterhead of the firm and also get the stamp of the proprietor or of the firm on the authority letter if there is any.
Keep the original authority letter as well as a copy of the same at the time of depositing it in the court.

Hi. In case of a proprietorship firm, a formal authority on the letter head of the firm under signatures of complainant (which in this case is your brother) and stamp of firm would suffice but it would be good if your brother (actual complainant) appears in witness box to give evidence to avoid any technicality.
yes.. Power of attorney is required for legal representation. since complainant is your brother, a general power of attorney is required to be given by your brother on Rs. 50 stamp paper duly notarized by notary.
In this regard, it is relevant to mention that a complaint can very well proceed his or her complaint through his power of attorney and the same needs to be duly proved in the court of law. Authority Letter is not sufficient you need to have a authority from the proprietor of the Sole proprietorship concern.
