Siri Jagan, J. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= W.P(C) No. 6883 of 2006 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dated this, the 1st day of December, 2011. J U D G M E N T The petitioner is the respondent in complaint no. 18/2006 on the files of the Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum, Kasargod. In the same, a single member of the CDRF passed Ext.P4 interim order. The petitioner has filed this writ petition challenging the same on the ground that a single member cannot pass orders in complaints before the CDRF. I am of opinion that the writ petition was filed on the basis of the situation obtaining in 2006, which is not the situation as on today. Even otherwise, Ext.P4 is only an interim order, which alone had been stayed. In the facts and circumstances of the case, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the appropriate bench of the Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum to consider the complaint in accordance with law, if the same is still pending.
