FIRST APPEAL HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 11/12/2007, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: K.S.RADHAKRISHNAN & T.R.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, JJ. --------------------------------- M.F.A.No.890 OF 2001 ------------------------------------ Dated this the 11th day of December, 2007 JUDGMENT Radhakrishnan, J. Claimant is the appellant. Accident as well as insurance coverage are not disputed. The only contention raised by the appellant is that adequate amount has not been awarded by the Tribunal for permanent disability. It is stated that petitioner has produced Ext.A3 certificate showing that appellant is having 12% permanent disability. The said certificate was not accepted by the Tribunal since it was not proved. The Tribunal had noticed that the appellant has some difficulty in walking and climbing steps and a sum of Rs. 30,000/- was awarded for permanent disability. Even if we take 12% for permanent disability applying with multiplier of 17, appellant will be entitled to get a sum less than Rs. 30,000/-. Therefore the findings rendered by the Tribunal need not be interfered with. We find no reason to entertain this appeal. Appeal is dismissed. K.S.RADHAKRISHNAN JUDGE T.R.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR JUDGE sv.
