Ni act partnership firm, one partner seeks exemption


Dear Sir, recently my partnership firm in Delhi closed down. It was a 50 - 50 ratio partnership. There is a dispute between partners. No dissolution deed has been signed. There are 3 Sec 138 cases filed against us. My partner is not willing to pay and sort. I am willing to pay my 50% share. Can I be exempted after paying my share. Both people have signed the cheques. Is there any case law? Our lawyer is my partners very close friend, and I am afraid he could be talking his side. I have a hearing on Monday, so urgent response will be of great help. I do not want to get bail and give surety just want thus case to get over.

Since the cheque was signed by both of you partners so none can be absolved from their liability and consequences of the offence of cheque bouncing.You have to pay entire cheque amount on first day of hearing if you do not want to contest the case.
