Firstly your complaint will be returned to you back and your have to file it at the place of accused bank.

At the first instance the cheque is a wasted piece of paper, as you have filed the case at the wrong location.You have not specified the transaction details.As you have already filed a complaint at a different location,you cannot file a fresh complaint using the same instrument.Only option for you is to file a civil case.

Dear

As per the supreme court judgement in RupSingh Rathod u can file a criminal case under section 406, 420 IPC at the place of jurisdiction where the transaction took place i.e. where the actually cause of action lies and u can also file a suit for recovery of money as well.

The cheque bounce case filed in Mysore will be returned to you with an advise to file the same in Bangalore within 30 days of return.  That is the latest ruling.  If you do not want to pursue the cheque bounce case at Bangalore, you may lodge a criminal complaint against the accused in the place of the event occurred.

The best way in such cases will be filing summery suit for recovery which will be sure and swift and recovery of money will be assured with interest till the money is paid.

 

If you file criminal case than just because you did not refile the NI 138 case at new place will weaken your complaint and it will take years to decide without any prospect of recovery of money.

 

We can help you to file summery suit at proper court in all such cases.
