Copy of JudgmentView PDF
The appellants, Sri Rani Bai Matriculation School and others, were convicted under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act for dishonoring a cheque for Rs.30,00,000/-. The trial court sentenced them to imprisonment and ordered compensation payment. However, during the appeal, both parties filed a joint petition under Section 147 of the Negotiable Instruments Act (which allows compounding of offences), after the appellants paid Rs.50,00,000/- in full settlement. The court allowed the compromise and set aside the conviction, acquitting all appellants under Section 320(8) CrPC, following Supreme Court precedent that offences under Section 138 can be compounded even at appellate stage.
