friend filed case 420, please reply me , i am in depression

Even if it were to be true that you keep signed letter heads and cheques in your office almari, which was not even locked, the court will never buy your story, however intelligently it might be provided by your lawyer to the court. And, though, you could prove it that it all happened 12 years ago, the cheque would be deemed valid under Section 20 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, which deals with Inchoate Instruments. Under this section (number I am not very sure), an inchoate instrument is a blank instrument, which, if signed and given to the payee and here, the drawer is deemed to have permitted the payee to fill it up at any time he feels like and date it in the manner he likes and fill it up for any amount he likes. And to support his claim of the amount, he has your signed letter as well, now.

Unless your 'friend' himself agrees that he had stolen it from you, you will not be spared of the ordeal. You may go for a compromise with him.

Dear Sir,

Please be a little clear to get proper advise ..... has ur friend filed two cases .... one for 2 lakh cheque dishonour and second for cheating ( 420 ) If yes ....... please give separate details of each case ...... 

yes sir , it's two case , please help me

1) he saying by first case i given promiss me to return my company material worth of  10 lakh if not able to pay then amount of that material .

2) he saying on basis of 10 lakh he bounced a cheque of 2 lakh which is given by me as inisital installment after 12 year

Please help me

You say he has stolen the letterhead & signed blank cheques somewhere in 1999 .... Can u tell me what writing he has put on the letterhead and what is the date of that writing ........

Dont worry,

Tell me, What did complainant described in complaint about the date of transaction???

And also tell me who did filled the cheque.

Get the record of cheque book from concerned bank that when the cheque book was issued and after that how many cheque books were issued??

Please apply for exam by Handwriting Expert. This will reveal who had signed and filled in the contents of the cheque and then U can go ahead with your defence.

The incident is highly incredible and improbable. Unless you say the truth in the case, the other side lawyer will not leave you so easily. There are a lot of ifs and buts in your case and also I could see many things are hidden by you in this query in order to draw sympathy and favourable advice from our member-advocates. Plz note that the Court is more intelligent in grasping things from litigants during trial and materials available before it. You have to be 100% true to your lawyer first.
