No.32 of              2006   confirming<\/p>\n<p>judgment and decree of learned Munsiff, Quilandy in O.S. No.210 of<\/p>\n<p>2004.      Respondent\/plaintiff      claimed        that Karunakaran   Nair,<\/p>\n<p>predecessor in interest of appellants borrowed Rs.50,000\/- from him<\/p>\n<p>on 15.6.2003 and issued Ext.A1, cheque dated 15.5.2004 for the sum<\/p>\n<p>of Rs.60,000\/- which took in the principal amount together with<\/p>\n<p>interest  agreed to be paid thereon. Since Karunakaran Nair died<\/p>\n<p>before the date of maturity, respondent could not present the cheque<\/p>\n<p>for encashment.    After the death of Karunakaran Nair, respondent<\/p>\n<p>issued notice to the appellants demanding payment of the amount.<\/p>\n<p>Appellants denied the transaction and execution of cheque and hence<\/p>\n<p>the suit. Respondent gave evidence as P.W.1 and examined P.Ws.2<\/p>\n<p>and 3 in proof of the alleged transaction and execution of Ext.A1.<\/p>\n<p>Appellant No.3 was examined as D.W1 and gave contra evidence.<\/p>\n<p>Exhibits B1 to B5 and X1 to X3(b) are produced in support of the<\/p>\n<p>contention of appellants. Learned Munsiff found that Karunakaran Nair<\/p>\n<p>had borrowed money from the respondent and issued the cheque.<\/p>\n<p>R.S.A. NO.519 of 2009<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                 -: 2 :-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>First appellate court confirmed the same. As the decree now stands,<\/p>\n<p>respondent is allowed to realise the amount from the        assets of<\/p>\n<p>Karunakaran Nair in the hands of appellants. Appellants are aggrieved<\/p>\n<p>and have come up in Second Appeal urging the following by way of<\/p>\n<p>substantial questions of law.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                   (i)   Whether a suit can be maintained<\/p>\n<p>            by a drawee of the cheque against the legal<\/p>\n<p>            representatives of the drawer of the cheque<\/p>\n<p>            without a plea that the legal representatives<\/p>\n<p>            had inherited the estate of the drawer to bear<\/p>\n<p>            the responsibility and obligation to discharge<\/p>\n<p>            the original debt owed by the drawer of the<\/p>\n<p>            cheque?\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                   (ii)  Whether the courts below are<\/p>\n<p>            justified in drawing a presumption under<\/p>\n<p>            Section 118 of the Negotiable Instruments Act<\/p>\n<p>            upon Ext.A1 (concededly a post dated cheque)<\/p>\n<p>            which was      presented for encashment long<\/p>\n<p>            after the death of the drawer of the cheque<\/p>\n<p>            even without proof regarding the signature of<\/p>\n<p>            the drawer as contained in the cheque?\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                   (iii) Whether the courts below are<\/p>\n<p>            justified in drawing a presumption in favour of<\/p>\n<p>R.S.A. NO.519 of 2009<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                   -: 3 :-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>            the drawee of the cheque in spite of the<\/p>\n<p>            contrary evidence adduced by the appellants<\/p>\n<p>            with regard to the very basis of the cheque in<\/p>\n<p>            question? Is not the presumption contemplated<\/p>\n<p>            under     Section    118     of the  Negotiable<\/p>\n<p>            Instruments Act a rebuttable one?\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                   (iv)   Whether a cheque     issued by a<\/p>\n<p>            person can be presented for encashment long<\/p>\n<p>            after the death of the drawer of the cheque and<\/p>\n<p>            file a suit for the said amount against the legal<\/p>\n<p>            representatives? Is not such a claim bad and<\/p>\n<p>            hit by Section 64 of the Negotiable Instruments<\/p>\n<p>            Act?\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                   (v)    Are not the conclusions in the<\/p>\n<p>            judgments of the courts below vitiated by<\/p>\n<p>            reason of their perverse appreciation of the<\/p>\n<p>            evidence on record?\n<\/p>\n<p>It is contended by       learned counsel that courts below have not<\/p>\n<p>adverted to the above questions while granting decree in favour of<\/p>\n<p>respondent.\n<\/p>\n<p>      2.    Substantial questions of law urged in the Second Appeal<\/p>\n<p>concerned the question regarding validity of the negotiable instrument<\/p>\n<p>and its presentation after the death of the drawer of the instrument. I<\/p>\n<p>R.S.A. NO.519 of 2009<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                  -: 4 :-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>have gone through the copy of the plaint which learned counsel for<\/p>\n<p>appellants produced before me for perusal and I find that the suit is<\/p>\n<p>based on the original cause of action, i.e. Karunakaran Nair borrowing<\/p>\n<p>Rs.50,000\/- from the respondent       on 15.6.2003.  Though it is also<\/p>\n<p>stated that the date on which the amount payable (15.5.2004) also<\/p>\n<p>gave respondent a cause of action for suing for recovery of the amount<\/p>\n<p>basically and principally suit is based on the original cause of action.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore much of the substantial questions of law urged in the<\/p>\n<p>Second Appeal do not arise for decision.\n<\/p>\n<p>      3.    It is not the case of respondent that he had presented the<\/p>\n<p>cheque for encashment at any point of time. Instead he pleaded that<\/p>\n<p>he did not present the cheque for encashment since Karunakaran Nair<\/p>\n<p>died before the due date i.e., 15.5.2004. He has given evidence as<\/p>\n<p>P.W1 regarding the transaction and execution of Ext.A1, cheque by<\/p>\n<p>Karunakaran Nair. P.Ws.1 and 2 also supported him. P.W.2 of course,<\/p>\n<p>is a relative of respondent. But he is also a neighbour of respondent<\/p>\n<p>and Karunakaran Nair.      Exhibit B4 series are produced to show that<\/p>\n<p>cheque book containing Ext.A1 was not issued to Karunakaran Nair<\/p>\n<p>during 2003 when according to the respondent alleged transaction<\/p>\n<p>took place. But the mere fact that Ext.A1, cheque comes from the<\/p>\n<p>cheque book containing Ext.B4 series is of the previous year does not<\/p>\n<p>R.S.A. NO.519 of 2009<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                   -: 5 :-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>by itself mean that there was no such transaction as pleaded by the<\/p>\n<p>respondent.        Exhibits X1 to X3(b) are produced to show that<\/p>\n<p>Karunakaran Nair who was admittedly working at Goa during the<\/p>\n<p>relevant time had attended his office on 14.6.2003 and 16.6.3003 and<\/p>\n<p>therefore there was no possibility of        his being at Quilandy on<\/p>\n<p>15.6.2003 to borrow the amount from the respondent.             It is seen<\/p>\n<p>from the judgment of the trial court that appellants had produced the<\/p>\n<p>time table of train timings from Calicut to Medgaon. Learned Munsiff<\/p>\n<p>observed that the running time was only 11 hours and hence there<\/p>\n<p>was no difficulty for Karunakaran Nair even if he had been attending<\/p>\n<p>office on 14.6.2003 and 16.6.2003 to come to Quilandy on 15.6.2003<\/p>\n<p>and return to the place of his employment and attend duty               on<\/p>\n<p>16.3.2003.     Trial court has   referred to the oral and documentary<\/p>\n<p>evidence and found in favour of the transaction and execution of<\/p>\n<p>Ext.A1 by Karunakaran Nair. First appellate court has confirmed that<\/p>\n<p>finding. I do not find any perversity in the finding of the courts below<\/p>\n<p>and as such no question of law is involved.<\/p>\n<p>       4.    It is lastly argued by learned counsel that appellants could<\/p>\n<p>not have been made personally liable for the debt of Karunakaran Nair.<\/p>\n<p>It is seen from the operative portion of the judgment of learned Munsiff<\/p>\n<p>that it is made clear that liability of appellants shall be limited to the<\/p>\n<p>R.S.A. NO.519 of 2009<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                -: 6 :-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>extent of property of Karunakaran Nair inherited by them. That would<\/p>\n<p>take care of the apprehension of appellants as against the personal<\/p>\n<p>liability apprehended by them.      I do not find any question of law,<\/p>\n<p>much less any substantial question of law involved in the Second<\/p>\n<p>Appeal requiring its admission.\n<\/p>\n<p>       Resultantly, Second Appeal is dismissed in limine.<\/p>\n<p>                                            THOMAS P.JOSEPH, JUDGE.\n<\/p>\n<p>vsv<\/p>\n<p>R.S.A.
