Dear Mr.Kiran,

Government Notifies Negotiable Instrument (Amendment) Act, 2018

August 6, 2018

The Central Government has notified amendment to one of the most essential legislation i.e. the Negotiable Instrument (Amendment) Act, 2018.

The Amendment incorporates Section 143A in the Negotiable Instrument Act, 1881  which provides for the Power to provide for interim compensation to the complainant.

The insertion of new provisions in the NI Act aims at addressing the issue of undue delay in finality of cheque dishonor cases. It is believed that the amendment will strengthen the credibility of cheques and help trade and commerce in general.

• The new Section 143 A empowers the Court trying an offence under Section 138 of the NI Act (cheque dishonor cases) order the drawer of the cheque to pay interim compensation to the complainant. The interim compensation so payable shall be twenty percent of the amount of the impugned cheque. Earlier, there was no such relief available to the complainant under the Act.

• The Amendment also inserts new Section 148, whereby in an appeal by the drawer against conviction under Section 138 of the NI Act, the Appellate Court may order the appellant to deposit such sum which shall be a minimum of twenty percent of the fine or compensation awarded by the trial Court. However, if the appellant is acquitted, then the Court shall direct the complainant to repay to the appellant the amount so released, with interest.

Please search in web for more information and Good luck for winning and getting the money soon from the accused ( I am also Victim of NI138 since 2011, My order passed in Jan 2018 and CRLA is going on)

Regards,

	I have won the 138 NI act on 16th Nov 2018, and the accused has gone for CA on 6th December 2018. Here are my questions  1. Actally what happes next in the appelate court, VI MSJ court. 2. Within what time accused can appeal and file in the MSJ court. Is 6th December 2018 is legally with stipulated time or not.

1.  In appellate court, the judge determines points of law and whether Trial court order is within all the parameters of law and that all evidences (documentary & witnesses) were duly taken on record, before Trial court order. No new evidences would be taken on record.

2. Since the Accused has rightfully filed his appeal within 30 days, you have to ensure that proper arguments are put up against the accused's contentions, alongwith relevant precedents /citations.

Hi,

"No new evidences would be taken on record.". Can the accused file petition under section 391 to file additional evidence? Can the complainant oppose to this petition? If complainant can oppose, what are the grounds in which counter can be filed?

1. Appellate Court does not have jurisdiction to conduct Trial proceedings or mark exhibits or record statements of additional witnesses.

2. However, IF the above seems necessary to the Appellate Court, THEN the matter will be remanded back to Trial court, for fresh hearings.
