I served a jail term in a criminal case and now a civil case is filed. How to solve this issue?

My husband had a criminal case, and he served 2 months.

4 years later, a civil case was again opened against him for the same cheque of 392,000.

How much imprisonment he may face and how can this problem be solved?

He must try to pay the amount in installments to the court because he could face imprisonment for a year.

The current civil case will be different from the criminal case for which he was imprisoned.

Now he or his representative will have the full right to defend himself, indicating the circumstances and the reason for signing the cheque and whether it was a result of commercial transactions or other actions.
