How to deal with cheque cases in court?

I had taken ₹50,000 from Prakash Gupta and gave him a cheque as security. Later, I repaid ₹25,000 to him online. Despite that, he presented the full ₹50,000 cheque in court. Please provide appropriate legal advice.

You can file a civil suit in court challenging the cheque payment, especially if you have already repaid ₹25,000. You may also raise a defense that the cheque was given as security and the amount was partially cleared. Consult a lawyer to draft a defense and protect your rights in the case.
