Legal Question in Criminal Law in Pakistan

in civil case of order 37 recovery suit, the Session and High court already decided the same cheque and dismissed the case of complainant. my question is that same complainant lodged an FIR , crimincal case on same cheque before lodging civil case above. If Judicial magisterate can still decide and convict the accused on same cheque for which superior courts have already decided the same in civil recovery suit order 37 ?

thanks. Liaqat
