https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=108575 Complaints under section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act were challenged on the basis that they were signed by the manager of a proprietary concern and that the proceedings were an abuse of process. The complaints were treated as having been instituted by the payee, and the proprietary character of the concern did not convert the matter into one requiring a power of attorney complaint. The authority of the manager to sign was held to be a matter for evidence at trial, not a ground for quashing at the threshold. Repeated challenges to maintainability were also discouraged, and the petitions were described as belated and lacking candour. en-us Tue, 12 Nov 2002 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 17:28:53 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=108575 Complaints under section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act were challenged on the basis that they were signed by the manager of a proprietary concern and that the proceedings were an abuse of process.
