have you got any proof to establish the office boy liability to pay rs50000 to you. if so you can send a legal notice along with the cheque return memo issued by the bank demanding him to settle the amount within 15 days of recieving the notice.this notice needs to be sent within thirty days of getting the cheque return memo.if he is not settling the amount then you can file a cheque bounce case u/s 138 nia in the court within whose jurisdiction the bank which dishonoured the cheque is located
