Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? No 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not?No 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest?No K.Kannan, J.(Oral) 1. The appeal is against an award of dismissal of the claim for injury sustained in a motor accident. The dismissal arose on account of the fact that the claimant who was driving a moped had dashed against a stationary bus which meant that he was himself responsible for the accident. The second reason was that the MLR had not been deliberately produced to conceal the fact that the claimant had consumed liquor. Third ground was that there was no damage to the F.A.O.NO. 46 OF 1994 2 moped and if it is a case of collision with the bus there would have been certainly a damage to the moped. 2. There is no representation for the appellant at the time when the matter is called. Learned State counsel as well as counsel for the Insurance Company are present and ready to argue the case. 3. The appeal is dismissed in default for non-prosecution. [K.KANNAN] JUDGE 9th February, 2011 Shivani Kaushik
