ORDER

HON’BLE JUSTICE SRI. K. SURENDRA MOHAN : PRESIDENT

The review petitioner who is the appellant in Appeal No. 594/2017 seeks review of an order dated 18.01.2023 passed by this Commission dismissing the appeal for non-prosecution.  According to the review petitioner, due to a clerical error in noting down the posting date there was no representation for the appellant on one day before this Commission.  However, it is stated that the appeal was dismissed for want of representation. 

2.  Heard the counsel for the review petitioner.  A perusal of the order sought to be reviewed shows that there had been no representation for the appellant on various postings from 12.07.2022 onwards.  Noticing the above fact, the appellant was granted one final chance to appear.  Accordingly, the appeal was posted to 05.01.2023 for hearing, finally.  It was in the absence of representation on the said date also that the appeal was dismissed. 

3.  Sec. 50 of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 has empowered this Commission to review its orders only if there was an error apparent on the face of the record, thereof.  We find no error apparent on the face of the record in the order which is sought to be reviewed in this case.

In view of the above, this review petition is dismissed.
