Fill up the cheque and present it to bank for encashment. If it bounces then issue a lawyer's notice for recovery of money, and file a case for his prosecution for cheque bonce if he does not honor the notice. Simultaneously, file a case for recovery of amount advanced along with interest and the amount you incur on availing the services of your lawyer.
depositt the cheque . in the event cheque bounces issue legal notice under section 138 of NI calling upon your friend to pay sum of Rs 5 lakhs within period of 15 days from date of receipt of notice .
in the vent he fails to make payment file complaint before magistrate court for dishonour of cheque .
it is advisable to also file summary suit under order XXXVII of CPC for recovery of sum of Rs 5 lakhs with interest .
