THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE B.PRAKASH RAO AND THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE P.DURGA PRASAD L.P.A.NO.16 OF 2003 JUDGMENT: {Per the Hon’ble Sri Justice P.Durga Prasad} This appeal is preferred under Clause 15 of the letters Patent against the judgment of the learned Single Judge in C.M.A.No.1248 of 1995 dated 28.02.2002. The appellants herein have filed the claim petition for compensation of Rs.60,000/- for the death of their two years son in a motor accident. The Motor Accident Claims Tribunal-cum-District Judge, Nalgonda, found that the accident was occurred due to rash and negligent driving of the driver of the vehicle and by relying on the decision reported in Narsaingoju Shanmukha Chary and Another v. Nirma Sampath Kumar[1], held that the claimants are not entitled to any compensation except the compensation under ‘No Fault Liability’. The said award was questioned by the claimants before the learned Single Judge. The learned Single Judge, by taking into consideration the claim made by the claimants before the Tribunal and the age of the deceased being two years at the time of his death, confirmed the compensation awarded by the Tribunal under ‘No Fault Liability’. As per the judgment, it appears that the claimants have not canvassed about the payment of compensation under ‘Fault Liability’ for death of the deceased. However, as the age of the deceased is only two years and the compensation claimed is only Rs.60,000/-, the amount of Rs.25,000/- awarded by the Court below is just and proper to compensate the death of the deceased. Hence, we do not find any reason to interfere with the judgment of the learned Single Judge. More over, no substantial question of law is involved in this appeal. Accordingly, the L.P.A. is dismissed. No costs. _________________ (B.PRAKASH RAO, J) __________________ (P.DURGA PRASAD, J) 2nd February 2011 RRB [1] 1993 Law Summary 354
