Before admission of the complaint we have gone through the complaint and perused the record. Complainant had applied for a visa to U.K. which was rejected by the concerned authorities. That rejection was challengeable before the higher authorities i.e. Asylum and Immigration Tribunal and the decision of the Immigration Tribunal was further challengeable before the high Court or the Court of Session for review of Tribunal decision. Complainant filed appeal to the higher authorities, the complainant approached the OP-Express Immigration Appeal Services (p) Ltd for consideration and paid Rs.90000/- fee. The OP represented the case to Immigration Judge A.R.Lawrence through Sh.A.Burrett , and the same was dismissed on 24.6.2008. The grievances of the complainant is that order was further challengeable before appropriate court, (High Court or, where the Appeal was decided in Scotland, the court of Session). Opposite party did not file appeal for the same, hence Ops are deficient in rendering service for not filing the appeal.

2. No proof is filed by the complaint for engaging opposite party for filing appeals, in case of rejection of appeal by the Asylum and Immigration Tribunal. The complainant remained under the impression that the opposite party has appealed against the order and the appeal is pending before the high court. When the complainant approached the office of opposite party knowing about the fate of his case, he was surprised to know that the opposite party has not appealed against the order of the Tribunal to the higher authorities. It appears that service of OP was engaged by the complainant to file the appeal. They had filed such appeal. But no proof is brought on record by the complainant that in advance they had also engaged OP for filing 2nd appeal, in case his first appeal was not allowed. So, contract between the parties appears to file a appeal, fee for which job to be done by the OP was paid by the complainant. Therefore in such circumstances, we do not admit the complaint and the same stands dismissed.
