    Summary: The court dismissed the criminal revision application filed by Rashmina Hirenkumar Patel, a partner in a firm, challenging her summons in a cheque bounce case under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instrument Act. The court held that while a partner who did not sign a cheque cannot be automatically liable, at the summoning stage, a prima facie case exists where partnership is admitted and responsibility for business is alleged. The court ruled that the defence of being a "sleeping partner" and non-signature are matters of evidence for trial, not grounds to quash summons at the initial stage, and confirmed the lower court's summoning order.
