ORDER

¶30

The petitioner came up against the respective cases initiated under Section 138 of the Negotiable instruments Act to quash the same on the ground that it is only a false case. It is contended that the executant of the cheque was not in station at the time when it was executed. It is a matter to be adjudicated by the trial court, for which this court cannot exercise the jurisdiction under Section 482 Cr.P.C. Inter alia, it is contended that LP was registered against the petitioner without even serving summons/notice. Hence, it is fit and proper to afford an opportunity to the petitioner to appear and move for regular bail before the trial court

¶31

within one month from today. The trial court shall

¶32

consider the bail application, if any moved within that time, on the same day itself. Reserving the said right of the petitioner, the Crl.M.Cs. are dismissed.
