Notice ke 15 din khatam hone ke baad 1 mahine ke andar magistrate court mein Section 138 complaint file kariye. Saath mein original cheque, return memo, notice ki copy aur delivery proof, aur debt ka saboot (invoice, ledger) lagta hai. Court party ko summon karti hai. Bahut se cases court ke dauraan settle ho jaate hain, kyunki party par criminal saza ka dar hota hai.
Complaint se pehle checklist
- Original bounced cheque
- Bank ka return memo
- Section 138 notice ki copy aur registered post / e-notice ki delivery proof
- Woh invoice, ledger ya agreement jiske liye cheque diya gaya
- Party ke messages jo debt maante hain
Har date check kariye: memo ki date, notice bhejne ki date, notice milne ki date. Inme se koi galat ho to case par sawaal uthta hai.
Complaint file hone ke baad kya hota hai
- Advocate complaint aur aapka affidavit court mein file karta hai
- Court complaint dekh kar party ko summon bhejti hai
- Party court mein aati hai; yahan aksar settlement ki baat hoti hai
- Settlement na ho to evidence aur arguments, phir faisla
Court ki speed shahar aur court par depend karti hai. Isliye settlement ka raasta hamesha khula rakhiye.
Settlement: sabse common nateeja
Criminal case mein party ko personally court aana padta hai, aur saza ka dar hota hai. Isliye bahut si parties court ke shuruaati stage par hi payment ya kist ka plan le aati hain. Settlement likhit mein court ke record par ho, taaki default hone par aapka case wapas chal sake.

Case ke saath civil claim bhi
Section 138 ka case cheque ke amount ke liye hai. Agar party par usse zyada balance hai, ya aap interest bhi chahte hain, to doosra raasta saath chal sakta hai:
| Claim | Raasta |
|---|---|
| Bounced cheque ka amount | Section 138 complaint |
| Baaki invoice balance | Summary suit (CPC Order XXXVII) ya civil suit |
| MSME supplier ka balance aur interest | MSME Samadhaan |
Dono raaste saath chalne se party par pressure dono taraf se banta hai: criminal case ka dar aur civil claim mein interest. Bahut si parties is stage par poore balance ka settlement le aati hain. Advocate aapke ledger ke hisaab se batata hai ki kaunsa combination sahi hai.
