casestatus.in Summary

Summary of Crl.A. No. 1291/1998 - Thanunatha Babu v. M Sevvilam Parithi The Supreme Court allowed the appeal on 30 April 2004, setting aside the Madras High Court's order that had quashed the prosecution under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881. The High Court had quashed proceedings against the firm and individuals on grounds that notice was issued to the managing partner/General Manager rather than the firm itself. The Supreme Court held this objection was settled by the precedent in Rajneesh Aggarwal v. Amit J. Bhalla (2001), which established that prosecution of a Director/officer is valid even without notice to the firm. The trial court was directed to expedite proceedings without delay.
