NOTICE RETURNED WITH REMARKS "addressee left without instructions"
21-Jan-2023 (In Cheque Bounce Law)
Under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, when a cheque bounces due to insufficient funds in the account or any other reason, the payee can send a legal notice to the issuer of the cheque, demanding payment of the amount within a stipulated time period.
If the notice is returned with the reply "addressee left without instructions", it indicates that the person who issued the bounced cheque has either moved out or is temporarily away and has not provided any forwarding address or instructions for their mail to be held or redirected.
In such cases, the payee or the issuing authority may take further steps to locate the issuer of the bounced cheque, such as conducting a search through public records, using private investigators, or publishing a notice in a local newspaper.
If the issuer of the bounced cheque cannot be located, the legal proceedings may be delayed or become more complicated, and the payee may have to seek legal advice on the next steps to take.
