Short and punchy answer? YES, you can – under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881 💥

When someone hands you a dud cheque and it bounces due to insufficient funds or account closure—you don’t just sit and cry over spilled ink. 🖋️😤 You send a legal notice, and if they still don’t pay, you march to court like a boss! 🧑‍⚖️🔥
