in these cases normally peoples want there money back and once FIR is registered, payments can easily be taken out from accused person .But the crime remain there as the cheque was dishonored. After reeving the payment when trial begins complainant could seek punishment for accused person.and after that punishment whats so ever the complainant ca filed a suit for damages.

In second situation if an accused is adamant and not making recovery of cheque amount , the complainant must immediately filled a suit for recovery under 37 cpc in session court.

I f a pre arrst or after bail is moved then u must not filled such suit as it ll help to the accused/petitioner.
