In view of the same, the Criminal Appeal is dismissed as abated. It is needless to clarify here that the Appellant is not precluded from pursuing his available legal remedies for recovery of the amount due under the returned cheque, which forms the subject-matter of the instant appeal from the legal representatives of the deceased Respondent, by appropriate legal proceedings in the manner recognized by law. No costs.
