Siri Jagan, J. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= W.P(C) No. 30746 of 2007 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dated this, the 18th day of May, 2010. J U D G M E N T The petitioner is an appellant before the State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission against the judgment in O.P.No.743/2001 of the Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum, Thrissur. The petitioner's grievance in this writ petition is that despite a request made in that behalf, the Commission refuses to post the appeal and stay petition for admission at the Ernakulam Camp of the Commission. 2. No counter affidavit has been filed by the respondents. 3. Admittedly, the parties are from Thrissur District. As such, for both parties, it would be convenient to have the appeal heard in the Ernakulam Camp of the Commission. I am satisfied that there was no reason for the Commission to deny the facility of hearing of the appeal and stay petition at its Ernakulam Camp. Accordingly, I direct the State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission to post the appeal filed by the petitioner against the judgment of the CDRF, Thrissur in O.P. No. 743/2001, if received, in the next sitting of the Commission at its Ernakulam Camp and proceed with the same in accordance with law in the Ernakulam Camp itself. Until such time the Commission considers the stay petition filed by the petitioner, Ext. P1 order shall not be enforced. The writ petition is disposed of as above. Sd/- S. Siri Jagan, Judge. Tds/
