Recovering an amount of a cheque after bank account closure

Dear sir/madam,

A bank cheque was issued by an individual to my business partner. My business partner did not present the cheque for encashment for a month or so.

However, my partner has now come to know that the individual who had issued the cheque has closed the bank account. What will be the status now?

What will happen if the cheque is presented to the bank? And what legal recourse does my business partner have to recover the amount due to him?

Looking for advice from the esteemed lawyers of this forum.

Regards,

You can present the cheque for clearance. If it is returned unpaid, then you can file a civil case in order to recover the amount due to your partner.

Kindly contact us directly for a detailed discussion.

If need be, kindly contact us via phone for a detailed discussion or write us an email for further assistance.

Dear Questioner:

Your partner must present the cheque to the bank and then he has to file a civil case to claim the value of the cheque.

There are some things missing. You may want to add some details. Contact me, please.
