Transfer of cheque bounce case..

Kindly tell me whether the cognizance has been taken or not and whether you have received summons or not. 

I presume that since you belong to Chennai, your account is also of Chennai.

Presuming that the cognizance has been taken , your account is of Chennai and trial has not been started, then you should move to supreme court for the transfer of case citing the recent three judge bench supreme court  judgement. 

There are all chances that case will be transferred from Mumbai to Chennai.

no need to file any transfer petition before SC, file an application before trial court with the recent judgement of Apex Court, dasrath roop singh rathore vs state of maharastra, and raise question over the jurisdiction. trial court is bound to transfer the case to your area where the cheque got bounced.

The trial court has got no jurisdiction to transfer the case in another state.

However you can pray the concerned trial court to reject the case and return the papers to the complainant so that the complainant may file it in the court having jurisdiction. You may give the citation of the recent judgement.

Alternately you can also move to supreme court and get the case transferred.

The jurisdiction is not at the place where the cheque is bounce, but where the bank branch of account holder is situated. The whole judgement was regarding jurisdiction only. The apex court was worried  that the complainant to harass the accused, deposit cheque at a far off place or city.

Sir,

Thanks for your reply to my above query,Is any review of the said supreme court judgement is pending ,Can the application for jurisdictions be rejected on the basis of the pending review petition..Kindly reply,
