IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.O.C.P. No. 44 of 2009 Date of Decision : January 13, 2008 Saroop Singh ....Petitioner Versus Kamlesh Kumar Kaul and another .....Respondents CORAM : HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE T.P.S. MANN Present : Petitioner in person. T.P.S. MANN, J. (Oral) As per the order of the High Court passed on January 22, 2008, the petitioner was to be paid an amount of Rs. 20,000/- within a period of three months. Though, cheque was duly issued in favour of the petitioner but initially, it bounced. Later on, it was encashed and the amount credited to the account of the petitioner on 20.5.2008. The claim of the petitioner is that he has been burdened with an amount of Rs. 150/- by the banker when the cheque deposited by him for encashment bounced and also that the payment of the amount of Rs. 20,000/- was delayed by a period of about one month, for which he is entitled to interest. I am of the considered opinion that for such a petty amount of Rs. 150/- charged by the banker of the petitioner on account of the bouncing of cheque and an amount approximately Rs. 150/200 for interest, if the petitioner is finally found entitled to, the present petition for initiating contempt proceedings cannot be entertained. The petition is, accordingly, dismissed. ( T.P.S. MANN ) January 13, 2008 JUDGE satish
