https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=309151 Material alteration in a cheque, including alleged changes in date, month or amount, cannot ordinarily be determined in proceedings under Section 482 CrPC because it raises factual questions that require evidence. Where a complaint under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act is based on dishonour of cheques said to have been issued in discharge of a debt, the court must leave disputed issues such as whether alterations existed, who made them, and whether they affect the legally enforceable debt to trial, including expert evidence if needed. On that ground, the complaint was not liable to be quashed. en-us Wed, 16 Aug 2017 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 12 Aug 2023 21:18:22 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=309151 Material alteration in a cheque, including alleged changes in date, month or amount, cannot ordinarily be determined in proceedings under Section 482 CrPC because it raises factual questions that require evidence.
