Re: breach of agreement & dishonor of check

your father can, not only file a case u/s 138 of negotiable instruments act for bouncing of cheques but also can file a criminal complaint u/s 420. 468,471 of indian penal code, in case the builder also forged papers to sell off ur father's share. apart from criminal cases, civil cases for recovery of his share can also be filed.
