KCC 1259/2012

This case involved a disputed cheque signed by a company employee. A key issue was the company's liability as the expert report stated company activities had been funded using the cheque.

Background

The court dismissed the appellant's defence that the case should be dismissed because it was filed by an relevant party.

Decision

The court said that the court ruled that the appellant should pay the value of the disputed cheque because the documents of the case revealed that the company had received the value of the cheque in exchange for bills. The court said that one of the company's employees had signed the bills and therefore the company should bear the responsibility for his actions in this regard. The court said that the report of the expert confirmed that the litigant had funded the commercial activities of the company using the cheque. The court said that the company had failed to prove otherwise. The court said that the court concluded that the company still owed the value of the cheque to the litigant. The court said that the court had established its ruling on the grounds of solid evidence.

The court dismissed the appeal.
