    Case Summary: CRM-M/7782/2022 The Punjab High Court dismissed Punjab National Bank's petition seeking to restore a cheque bounce complaint (Section 138, Negotiable Instruments Act) that was withdrawn in December 2021. The court found no illegality in the lower court's order, despite PNB's contention that the complaint was withdrawn based on erroneous technical reasons (account wrongly showing as closed) rather than actual compromise. The court held that recovery proceedings remain available before the Debt Recovery Tribunal. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
