Rajesh Kumar Verma vs State of Bihar Advocate - Public Prosecutor — 121/2025

Summary The District & Additional Sessions Judge dismissed Rajesh Kr. Verma's revision petition challenging the lower court's order summoning him to trial for dishonored cheque under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. The court held that at the pre-summoning stage, only prima facie evidence need be established, and disputes about repayment of the Rs. 11,00,000 loan through bank statements are matters for trial, not for determination at this stage. The lower court's order was affirmed as it complied with all legal requirements, including issuance of legal notice within the statutory period.
