Vijakumar vs Thiruppathyrajan — 76/2026

Case Summary: Crl.M.P.No.76 of 2026 Court Decision: The petition was dismissed. The Karaikudi Fast Track Court rejected accused Vijayakumar's request to reopen the complainant's evidence in a cheque dishonour case (₹5,00,000 under Negotiable Instruments Act). The court found the petition was filed belatedly and without sufficient reason, noting that Vijayakumar had been given multiple opportunities to present his defence evidence (11.12.2025, 03.01.2026, 22.01.2026, 05.02.2026) but failed to utilize them. The court ruled that since Vijayakumar himself was a party to the agreement for sale he sought to produce, he could have submitted it during his evidence phase, and that he had already cross-examined the complainant about the agreement, making reopening unnecessary.
