2013 (2) TMI 227 - PUNJAB AND HARYANA HIGH COURTCheques bounced - summons issued - Held that:- It is not in dispute that the complaint was presented with regard to bouncing of Cheque but there is no mention in the summoning order with regard to the said cheque. It clearly shows that without perusing the complete facts, the Judicial Magistrate Ist Class, Chandigarh, has passed the summoning order as a matter of routine. The summoning of a person to face trial is a serious matter as it may jeopardise the liberty of a person. Therefore, the Magistrate has to apply his mind after taking into consideration the correct facts and then to pass a summoning order. The said test has not been applied in the case in hand. Therefore, the impugned summoning order is hereby set aside & matter is remitted back to the Judicial Magistrate Ist Class, Chandigarh, to pass fresh orders in accordance with law.
