Possible consequences of a bounced rental cheque
I had a warehouse and now its agreement has also expired. 6 months back, the landlord made a case against me in the police and maybe also made a case in the rental department.
Now, I need to know what is the punishment for the case made at the police station and the one at the rental department. My cheque amount is AED 60000.

Hi Questioner,
as you have said your tenancy has been expired more than six months ago, has the possession taken by the landlord?
The punishment for dishonouring a cheque of AED 60,000 is a fine of 5000 to 8000 approximately.
The landlord can claim the pending rent if any, for which the landlord can go to the Rental Dispute Center and ask for the pending rent.
