A.It will certainly raise eyebrows of the court, since he had not filled the cheque himself and handwriting will be different if you fill up his cheque. He will certainly raise this point in his defense and Magistrate will certainly make its observations and findings. Chance of your cheque bounce case u/s 138 NI Act will not make him accountable. However, other avenue needs to be ventured before coming to any conclusions. What I suggest you contact Vidhidarya for allotting a lawyer to review your partnership deed and other documents to determine what will be more fruitful for you.
