    Case Summary: Arun Kumar v. Mahendra Regar (46/2019) Decision: The court acquitted defendant Mahendra Regar of charges under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. Although the petitioner established that a cheque for ₹1,20,000 was issued and dishonored due to insufficient funds, the court found the statutory notice was defectively served at an incomplete address, failing to establish proper notice receipt. Additionally, the petitioner failed to prove the cheque was given for a legally enforceable debt, creating reasonable doubt about the offense. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
