Ur querry is not complete. Plz tell whether, their business, in documents, is separate or common? If it is separate then there is no problem & is if it is common, then the brother is liable to pay.

Yes dear Chetan,

Rakhi is exactly correct,  may both the brothers are performing the business separately, but if the same is  Common/Joint  business of them, then they both are liable for their defaualt in eyes of law. 

Secondly, if the business of both the brothers is not a Jointly/Common business, then they are is not liable and responsible for the default/cheating/misappropriation of other one.

So, if there is a CRIMINAL COMPLAINT filed by their Customer, then one of the Brother, who is not liable for the fraud of other one can file a " Revision/Quash Petition of FIR/CRIMINAL COMPLAINT " U/s. 482 of Cr.P.C.,  before the State High Court and get favourable order.

Dear friend,

If both the brothers are doing their business absolutely separately like a proprietor, the the position is different as both are liable only for their own personal conduct.  But if the business is common only the cities for operation are different only for their own convenience then both are liable for the liability.
