¶2Before the trial court, the petitioner filed the petitions to condone the delay of 61 days in preferring the complaints under Sec.138 of Negotiable Instruments Act and the same were dismissed by the trial court holding that no specific reason stated for the delay. Aggrieved over that, the petitioner/complainant preferred these Criminal Revision Cases.

¶3The learned counsel for petitioner would submit that due to lack of communication from his counsel, he was not able to present the complaints within a stipulated time. Hence, he prayed to set aside the findings of trial court.
