Those provisions apply to pending and transferred proceedings and displace jurisdiction based solely on the parties' residence. As the cheque was presented for collection through the Hospet branch, the Sandur Court lacked jurisdiction; the complaint should have been tried by the JMFC at Hospet. The concurrent conviction was therefore set aside in favour of the revision petitioner. en-us Tue, 19 Mar 2019 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 24 Dec 2021 08:45:42 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=299639 Territorial jurisdiction for a cheque dishonour complaint lies with the court where the cheque is delivered for collection through the payee's bank-account branch under Sections 142(2) and 142A of the Negotiable Instruments Act.
