J U D G M E N T This is an appeal preferred against the award of the Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal, Trichur, in O.P. (M.V.) 311 of 2003. The claimant sustained injuries in a road accident and he had been awarded a compensation of Rs. 39,500/-. Dissatisfied with the quantum, the claimant has come up in appeal. 2. Heard. A perusal of the award would reveal that the claimant had sustained a lacerated wound at the right knee with quadriceps tear and fracture of the lateral femoral condyle and a lacerated wound. The Tribunal had considered the treatment and awarded Rs. 15,000/- towards pain and suffering, Rs. 10,000/- towards loss of earning and Rs. 10,000/- towards loss of amenities of enjoyment in life. No disability certificate had been produced nor any evidence tendered to show that there is any disability for the person. I feel, on the other heads as well the Tribunal had properly compensated him and therefore, it is a just and reasonable compensation. The appeal does not merit admission. Dismissed. M.N. KRISHNAN, (JUDGE) KNC/-
