Versus

ORDER This revision petition is preferred impugning the judgment of the Additional Sessions Court-I, Palakkad, in Criminal Appeal No.25/2011 for the offence punishable under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act (for short, ‘the Act’). The above appeal was preferred, challenging the judgment in C.C.No. 1145/2009 on the files of the Judicial First Class Magistrate-III, Palakkad, whereby the accused was found guilty.

2. The trial court sentenced the revision petitioner to undergo simple imprisonment for three months and to pay a compensation of Rs. 2,75,000/- and in default to undergo simple imprisonment for three months.

3. The appellate court, as per the impugned judgment, modified and reduced the sentence to one till rising of the court and to pay compensation of Rs.2,80,000/-, keeping the default sentence intact.

4. The learned counsel for the revision petitioner reiterated the contentions which were raised before the courts below and got rejected concurrently. The contentions raised before me are also urging for re-appreciation of evidence, which is not permissible under the revisional jurisdiction unless any kind of perversity is found in the appreciation of evidence. 5.
