C.M.A.Nos.3510, 3564 and 3555 of 2002 arising out of O.P.Nos.257, 259 and 253 of 1998 filed by the insurer were disposed of by a common judgment of this Court dated 07-11-2008 by which the appeals were dismissed and the awards were confirmed repelling the contention of the insurer about any violation of the terms and conditions of the insurance policy. Another appeal filed in C.M.A.No.3558 of 2002 by the insurer against the award in O.P.No.12 of 1998 and two appeals filed by the present appellant herein against the awards in O.P.No.253 of 1998 and O.P.No.12 of 1998 in C.M.A.Nos.3562 of 2003 and 1252 of 2003 were disposed of by another learned Judge of this Court by the common judgment dated 22-07-2010 by which those appeals were also dismissed holding that there was no violation of any terms and conditions of the insurance policy. The Tribunal giving the insurer the liberty to recover the amount paid to the claimants from the appellant herein was also upheld by the learned Judge. Sri Srinivasa Rao Vutla, learned standing counsel for the insurer represented that these two judgments have become final and applied to the present appeals, which also were filed on identical grounds. While there are no other reasons other than those raised in the other appeals forming the grounds of challenge to the awards in question in these two appeals, the result of the other appeals should bind the result of these appeals also. Hence, these appeals are dismissed without costs. _____________________ G. BHAVANI PRASAD, J Date: 30-09-2011 Ksn
