Lawyers are available now to answer your questions.
1. When the case is filed the only option is to fight it on merit.
2.if you could prove that the cheque was not issued to discharge the debt as claimed in the case no order will be passed against your mother.
3.The lawyer presently looking after your case does not appear to be an expert in this case and you better think in terms of changing him with another one.
1. A cheque of 1 lakh can give a cause of action for only case, not multiple cases. The same cheque cannot be used to sustain more than 1 cheque bounce case.
2. There is something amiss in the advice of your lawyer. So consult another lawyer with the complete set of case documents.
1) it appears your mother had issued blank cheques
2) if blank cheque had been issued you have authorised drawee to fill in date and amount of cheque
3) if your mother has not seen the complainant your mother should through her lawyer cross examine the complainant
4)it has to be proved that there is debt due and paybale to your mother
5) your mother should in her statement recorded before magistrate deny her liabilty to make payment . state there is no debt due and payable
My mother denied the due in her statement but the court is favourable only to the opponent lawyer
There is presumption that when cheque is issued it was in discharge of debt due and payable
2) if there is no debt due and payable complaint would be dismissed
If there was a cheque bounce case and the verdict came against your mother, then the court would have sentenced her with punishment and not recovery from salary every month, probably this might be a civil money recovery suit, in which the opponent would have utilised your mother's promissory note and not the cheque issued to her.
Thus she has come out with a cheque bounce case on the basis of the cheque issued to her simultaneously.
If you feel that your lawyer is not effective and not cooperative, you can change the lawyer even at this moment.
Without knowing the proper details of the cases, any opinion given at this stage may be misguidance, hence you may consult a local advocate with all the relevant papers and take a second opinion immediately.
My mother denied the due in her statement but the court is favourable only to the opponent lawyer
Without getting a judgment from the court, do not jump into any conclusion.
If you are aggrieved by the judgment at that stage, you may prefer an appeal against the judgment and plead your grounds.
