Özet: The Turkish Commercial Code No. 6102 and the Cheque Law No. 5941 contain various provisions related to issuance of a dishonored cheque. The practice “issuance of cheques”, which is indispensable for business life, brought with it many problems in the course of time. To the end that these problems are resolved, the Law No. 3167 “On the Regulation of Payments by Cheques and the Protection of Cheque Holders” was first put into force in 1985; however, the Law was amended for many times in the course of time. Afterwards, the Law No. 3167, including all the temporary articles thereof, was repealed by the new “Cheque Law” No. 5941 at the end of 2009. However, amendments were also made to the Law No. 5941 by the Law No. 6728 “On Making Amendments to Certain Laws for the Purpose of Improvement of the Investment Environment” on 15.7.2016. By these amendments, a number of conventional practices were repealed, and a number of gaps occurred in relation to the actions necessary to be taken in case of issuance of a dishonored cheque. In this context, this article aims to analyze the processes related to the dishonered check concept in Turkish Law.
