Next step to be taken by me

(Querist) 06 April 2011 This query is : Resolved 
ICFAI University filed criminal case against me
I have initially taken admission in ICFAI distance learning MBA
Program. I have paid 10000/- initially and agreed to avail the EMI
facility through post dated cheques for next 15 months.

Due to some reasons, i had to withdraw myself from the course for
which i was advised to provide the stop payment instructions to the
bank by the study center.

There was lot of emails exchanged between my self & the university. I
have intimated them many times through email that the reason I wanted
to discontinue the course. Even after my repeated request they
continued to send me legal notices.

I can also forward you all the e-mails where I requested them to
discontinue the course.

Now they have filed a criminal case on the file of III Additional
Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad under section 138 of
Negotiable Instruments Act. This intimation letter has come from
"Icfai University" not from court or lawyer.

I understand that i would need to consult a Lawyer to answer them legally. However, the case is filed at Hyderabad & i stay in Bangalore, i would need to go to hyd? Kindly refer me a lawyer whom i could consult in bangalore/Hyderabad

In first place please clarify if any notice about the cheque bounce was intimated/sent to you. Further, without a proper notice the complainant cannot file a case against you. Please clarify for further guidance.

In the context of recent supreme court decisions the case filed in Hyderabad may not be maintainable and liable to be quashed. So on getting details of the case this case may be quashed in Hyderabad.
