Summons under section 138 of ni act

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 30 July 2018 This query is : Open
The defendent in the Cheque Bounce Case has been avoiding issuance of summons as he has not given the correct address. The Lawyer says unless the summons is served on him, the case can not move forward.
The case is at that stage for the last two years.
I feel this should not be an issue. Can we get an exparte judgment ?
Thanks
