    Case Summary: K. Venkatesan v. M. Sivanesan (Crl.A. 91/2018) The appellate court set aside K. Venkatesan's conviction under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act and acquitted him based on a settlement between the parties. Venkatesan was originally convicted of issuing a cheque for Rs. 8,50,000 that bounced due to insufficient funds; the appellate court allowed his appeal after he paid Rs. 1,00,000 to complainant M. Sivanesan in settlement, relying on Supreme Court precedent that permits compounding offences under Section 138 even at appellate stage.
