Re: cheque bounce

You may defend only if you can establish that you did not owe him any money and that the cheques in question were not issued for "discharge of any liability".

The burden of proof will be upon you as there is a presumption in favour of the payee and against the drawer.

If you owe him money, you may better consider an amicable out of court settlement.
