CHANDIGARH COCP No. 2271 of 2016 Date of decision : 09.09.2016 Virsa Singh ....Petitioner V/s Subash Chander ....Respondent BEFORE : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA

Present:

Mr. N.S. Sodhi, Advocate for the petitioner.

RAJAN GUPTA J.

Petitioner has invoked the contempt jurisdiction of this court alleging violations of undertaking given by respondent before the court below that he would pay the cheque amount. I am of the considered view that no case for interference in contempt jurisdiction is made out. A perusal of the undertaking shows that it was also stated by the respondent that in case of default, he had no objection if he is prosecuted under section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act.

In view of above, present contempt petition is totally frivolous and same is dismissed with `5,000/- as costs. September 09, 2016 (RAJAN GUPTA) Ajay JUDGE Whether speaking/reasoned:
