High Court exercised inherent jurisdiction sparingly to refuse quashing of a complaint under the Negotiable Instruments Act, holding that appreciation of evidence is impermissible at the quashing stage and disputed facts requiring trial cannot be decided on a Section 482 petition; outcome: the summons and complaint stand.
