Rohini Court

Rohini Court hears civil, criminal and family cases for the North and North West Delhi districts. That covers bail applications and criminal trials, cheque bounce complaints under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, property, partition and landlord–tenant suits within the district courts' ₹2 crore limit, and family cases. Our advocates act at Rohini in criminal, cheque bounce, divorce, property and landlord–tenant matters, from our office directly opposite the court in Pitampura.

Rohini Court covers the North and North West Delhi districts, so a case belongs here when the FIR was registered, the property lies or the cause of action arose in one of them. If you are unsure, bring the FIR or the property address to our Pitampura office and we will confirm the court.

You can meet our advocates at our office at AD-13 B, Power Apartment, Pitampura, New Delhi 110034, directly opposite Rohini Court. Because the office faces the court, a meeting can be fixed before or after a hearing on the same visit. For matters that also involve the Delhi High Court, we can meet at our principal chamber, S-307, 3rd Floor, Delhi High Court, Pragati Vihar, New Delhi 110003. A first consultation can also be by phone or video call. Call or WhatsApp 99115 44811, or email manujalawyers@gmail.com (Mon–Sat, 9:30 am – 6:30 pm), to fix a time.

A cheque bounce complaint is filed at Rohini Court when the payee's bank branch, where the cheque was presented for collection through the payee's account, is in the West or North West district. Since the 2015 amendment to Section 142(2) of the Negotiable Instruments Act, the drawer's bank branch no longer decides the court. The deadlines are strict: the cheque must be presented within its three-month validity, the demand notice sent within 30 days of the return memo, and the complaint filed within one month after the drawer's 15 days to pay run out.
