A Lawyer not a consumer!

A Lawyer not a consumer!

A Lawyer in Bangalore fought a case for Central Excise Commission.After the case Central Excise Commission refused to pay!

The Lawyer moved Consumer Court .

The Consumer Court ruled that the Lawyer was a service provider and not a consumer.He was providing service to Excise Commission  and has not purchased goods from it.

Interesting isn’t it?

The Lawyer is M.T.Vasanth Kumar,a standing counsel for the Central Govt..

He had charged a fee of Rs 20250 for the case he fought in 2007.He also had sought a compensation of Rs 50000/- from  Central Excise Commission.

However the Consumer Forum pulled up the Excise Commission for not clearing  the dues of the Advocate.
