Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's application for sending a disputed pronote and cheque for handwriting examination under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881. The Court found that the evidence presented did not sufficiently challenge the execution of the documents, and the High Court's reasoning that the application was merely a delay tactic was sound. The Court affirmed the lower courts' decisions, emphasizing the importance of established evidence in such cases.
