Debt is under promissory note. It is clearly mentioned in legal notice and complaint. But the complainant lost the promissory note. The above matter is coming for trail now. What to do now.
Please suggest me what I have to do with the help of case laws.

As soon as the promissory note is lost you are supposed to give a police complaint and get the Copy of the FIR and a paper publication to return to the PN to you. You may now use the photostat copy of the same as is can be contrued as secondary evidence admissibel in law when the original is incapable of production. I dont have a detailed case laws on this point any way if i have i will send you later.
