Negotiable Instrument Act

My case Details:
I am on the complaint side, accused has done signature on cheque in the form of "name father's name" but in bank true signature of accused is as "name father's name surname" so basically difference is he has not wrriten surname on cheque.
on the other side when cheque bounced, memo of bank has described two reasons namely:
1) signature differs
2) Insufficient fund
Accused has argued in court that there is "signature differ" so there is not application of sec 138.
1)What is the winning chance of our side?
2)I has heard of that there is suprem court judgement of this type, so please provide me the citation of judgement.

Can there be a review of the order under section 362 of the CrPc in a Order of the Court under section 457 of the CRPC?

Petition was filed under 457 of the CrPc for interim release of the vehicle which was rejected by the Court. can the same Court review its order under section 362 of the CrPc? as the district Transport Officer has clarified tha the claimant is the registered owner of the vehicle?

Should sccused prove his innocence before trial of the case?

In a case of theft of vehicle, the registered owner of the vehicle claim for interim release of the vehicle pending trial of the case as the police has not filed charge sheet. But the court refused to release the vehicle and direct the owner of the vehicle to prove their ownership otherwise the vehicle will be confiscated and dispose it off even though the trial has not commence.is it competent for the Court to dispose off the vehicle before the trial and is it proper for the court to direct the owner to prove their innocence before the trial?

Rewari (Haryana) after 10 year a decision was came that accused charged for one and half year prision with Rs. 300 fine each. But accused appealed in the Hon,able Higher Court i.e. District & Session Court Rewari. After 2 year Hon,able court made some amendment in the decision i.e. that was a family dispute and accused realsed on Probation of 2 year and awarded a compensation of Rs. 15000 to us. But we were not satisfied with Hon,able Session Court decision and Refused to take the compensation. We made an appeal against the decision in Hon,able Punjacb & Haryana High Court in Dec 2008.

Complainant regularly absent for proceeding u/s 138

The complainant is a multinational bank and I am an accused in the case u/s 138, 142 and compensation u/s 357(3). The said case will be shortly completing 4 years. The complainant representative are regularly absent during the proceedings and have been severly reprimanded by various Magistrates on many occassions but on two earlier occassions when the Magistrate were about to dismiss the case they were transfered as per routine.

During the last four hearings the complainant was absent again on the second last hearing the complainant was penalised 1000 and given a last warning and on the last hearing as the complainant witness was absent again for cross examination the cross examination has been closed by the Magistrate.

Now I would like to seek your guidance on how to proceed further.

Should I submit an application for dissmissal of the case, if so what is the procedure. In the last cross the complainant has first denied demanding blank cheques, but later agreed that blank cheques without amount and date were accepted at the time of opening the account.

Kindly note that I am pursuing this matter on my own for the last one year.

Thanking you in anticipation.

Sir,

Thank you for your guidance.

Magistrate has already closed the cross examination and informed the complainants advocate that the "matter would proceed further for necessary action" on next date. In view of this what is the nature of necessary action I can expect.

While in the Affidavit the complainaint has mentioned that the accused made the payment in settlement of Rs.xyz on 25/05/05 subsequently in the last cross examination the complainant witness has accepted that blank cheques were accepted prior to opening the account in June 2002 and has since failed to appear for further cross examination.

Under the above circumstances now I cannot proceed further to prove that I had no liabilities at the time of issuing the cheque infact even later.

I would very much appreciate if you will kindly guide.
