      You’ll have to check it from the complaint itself. It would have been explained therein.

      It may perhaps be referring to the fact that the cheque was endorsed / assigned to the holder in due course by the payee, if the cheque was “& Co.” type cheque.

      Or, it may be that the complaint has been filed by the POA of the complainant.

      You could have seen from the complaint and should have mentioned at 2-3 lines of details from the complaint. Certain things have to be seen in context.
