138 ISSUE..

Dear learned friends

Reg: Seeking your indulgence to solve my legal issue

We are a selling computer parts across India. But one of our client from patna purchased above 10 lak goods and giving PDC check to realize the amount. After presentation of check  in patna, the check has been bounced. But thereafter we bounce the check in Chennai once again and send 138 notice then filed a case in Chennai itself. Because the Chennai is a Head office having legal Team we don’t have enough employees to file a case in patna. We got Non–bailable warrant against defaulter and he imprisoned for two months and he has been released in bail. Hereafter he filed a case directly in Supreme Court saying it is not appropriate filing case in Chennai then he also withdraw the case. Later he approached Madras High court, he got an Interim order( We don’t about the order. But yet to know) and enjoying fruit of order. Now the issue comes to me to solve. Bouncing the check in different location is valid…? When it comes to jurisdiction issue…?
