Initial defect in authorization to prosecute under the Negotiable Instruments regime is a curable defect; a company acts through natural persons and a complaint stating prima facie that an authorised employee represents the company and has knowledge is sufficient for cognizance.

Subsequent ratification or board resolution may validate the complaint and additional evidence to that effect was rightly permitted.
