APPLN.321-2012.doc 2] Heard the learned Counsel for the applicant and the learned Counsel for the respondent No.1. Perused the record. The applicant is the original complainant in the aforestated Summary Criminal Cases filed under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. The Trial Court after recording evidence has reached to a conclusion that the applicant has failed to prove its case that, it supplied the goods in question i.e. computer material to the respondent and failed to produce any documentary evidence on record even to infer that the applicant in fact supplied goods to the respondent. That the applicant has also failed to prove the fact that the cheque in question was issued by the respondent No.1 towards legally enforceable debt or liability to the applicant.

3] After perusing the record minutely, this Court is of the opinion that the view adopted by the Trial Court is a reasonable and probable view in the facts and circumstances of the present case and no case for grant of leave to file appeal is made out.

All the applications are accordingly rejected. (A.S.GADKARI, J.) 2/2
