    Summary The 4th Additional Sessions Judge, Mahesana dismissed Akshay Joshi's appeal and confirmed his conviction under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act for issuing a dishonored cheque for Rs. 1,50,000. The court held that the complainant sufficiently proved the legally enforceable debt through documentary evidence (original cheque, return memo, statutory notice, and postal receipt), and the accused failed to rebut the statutory presumption under Section 139 of the Act, having neither replied to the demand notice nor produced any credible evidence denying the transaction.
