IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM PRESENT : THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ANTONY DOMINIC TUESDAY, THE 24TH MARCH 2009 / 3RD CHAITHRA 1931 W.P(C).No. 7060 of 2009(B) --------------------------------- PETITIONER: --------------- M.S.MOHAN KUMAR MOHANAVILASAM, KOOMBUKKAL, VAZHOOR P.O., KOTTAYAM. BY ADV. SRI.A.K.ABDUL AZEEZ RESPONDENT(S): -------------------- 1. BIJU JOHN, PALLIKKUNNEL HOUSE CHINGAVANAM PO, KOTTAYAM. 2. THE CONSUMER DISPUTES REDRESSAL FORUM. KOTTAYAM. THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 24/03/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 7060 OF 2009 (B) ===================== Dated this the 24th day of March, 2009 J U D G M E N T The prayer in this writ petition is to quash Ext.P1 and direct the 2nd respondent to take action against the 1st respondent, by reconsidering Ext.P1. 2. Ext.P1 is an order passed by the Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum, Kottayam in OP No.165/2004. The said order is dated 12th August, 2004. According to the petitioner, this belated challenge is raised before this Court for the reason that he was not given notice of the proceedings. However, para 5 of the order shows that notice was sent to the petitioner and the postal endorsement was to the effect that intimation was given, but the petitioner did not receive the same. It was accordingly that he was set ex-parte. Thus, Ext.P1 has become final and as the amount due was not paid, execution has been filed by Ext.P3. 2. In my view, the Tribunal cannot be faulted for passing Ext.P1 order and as the said order has become final, this Court will not be justified in interfering with Ext.P1 at this distance of time. Writ petition fails and is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
