Section 96 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code imposes an interim moratorium on civil debt-recovery actions, not on criminal prosecution for cheque dishonour under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. Cheque-dishonour proceedings protect the credibility of negotiable instruments and commercial discipline and therefore continue despite insolvency proceedings against the accused. On that basis, the stay of the cheque-dishonour complaint was set aside and the complaint was restored to the Trial Court for continuation in accordance with law.
