THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.793 of 2002 JUDGMENT: This Criminal Revision Case is directed against the docket order dated 09.12.1998 passed by the learned Judicial First Class Magistrate, Sathupalli, Khammam dismissing C.C.No.60 of 1998 filed by the petitioner/complainant, on the ground that process fee was not paid. The brief facts are that the first respondent herein approached the petitioner/complainant and borrowed an amount of Rs.20,000/- as hand loan promising to repay the same in two instalments. Subsequently, he issued two cheques bearing Nos.FA/95-754583 and FA/95-754582 dated 01.02.1998 and 25.02.1998 respectively for Rs.10,000/- each. When the said cheques were presented in the bank by the complainant, the same were dishonored with an endorsement “exceeds arrangements”. Hence, the complainant filed the above complaint, after following the due procedure provided under the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, and the same was dismissed on the ground that process fee was not paid. Though this revision was filed as early as in the year 2002, so far no notice is served on the first respondent and the learned counsel for the petitioner also has not taken any steps to see that notice is served on the first respondent. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I see no merits in this Criminal Revision Case and the same is accordingly is dismissed. ____________________________ GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA,J Date: 22.07.2010 va
