SPLA No. 112 of 2025 With CRLA No. 277 of 2025 Hon’ble Ravindra Maithani, J.
Mr. Ketan Joshi, Advocate for the appellant The appellant proposes to challenge the
judgment and order dated 04.03.2025, passed in Criminal Case No. 7997 of 2019, Smt. Kiran Belwal Vs. Yogesh Kumar Arya, by the Court of Civil Judge (Junior Division)/Judicial Magistrate, Haldwani, District Haridwar. By it, the respondent has been acquitted under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act,
1881. The appellant seeks leave to appeal. Heard.
Learned counsel for the appellant would submit that there is presumption with regard to the cheque that was admittedly given by the respondent to the appellant and this presumption has not been rebutted at all. The court below has wrongly shifted the burden on the appellant to establish financial capacity. He would submit that the financial capacity has never been questioned by the respondent. LCR is already before the Court and perused. Having considered, this Court is of the view that it is a case fit for granting leave to the appellant to prefer the appeal. Hence, leave granted. Admit. Issue notice to the respondent. LCR has already been received. Let paper book be prepared and supplied to learned counsel for the parties as per Rules. List thereafter for final hearing.
