ORDERK. Hema, J.1. Notices were sent to the petitioner in both the cases at hand, under Section 138(b) of Negotiable Instruments Act. Those were returned with the postal endorsement,'Addressee left India'. Those endorsements are true. He had in fact left India. Admittedly therefore, those were not served on the petitioner, though sent in correct address. Can in such circumstances, those notices be deemed to be served on the petitioner? Can the proceedings initiated against the petitioner under Section 138 of Negotiable Instruments Act be quashed? These are the main questions arising in both the cases before me.2. The petitioner is the accused in both the above cases. Same questions arise in these cases. Hence these cases are disposed of by this common order. The first respondent Crl.M.C.

No. 9017 of 2002 filed complaints against the petitioner, before the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-I, Thiruvananthapuram under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instrumen...

But, the said contention of the petitioner has been rejected by the 1st respondent Municipality, by Ext.P5 and Ext.P6 demand notice has been issued.
