PIUS C. KURIAKOSE,J. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - L.A.A.No.2231 of 2008 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dated: 26th November, 2008 JUDGMENT I do find some merit in the submission of the learned Government Pleader that the learned Subordinate Judge was not justified in placing reliance on Exts.A1 and A2 to grant enhancement to the claimant over the value fixed by the Land Acquisition Officer. However, I am not inclined to entertain this appeal since it is found that the total enhancement actually received by the respondent- claimant is a very nominal amount of around Rs.10/-. Considering the smallness of the stakes involved, the appeal will stand dismissed in limine. However, this judgment will not be quoted as a precedent in any other case. srd PIUS C.KURIAKOSE, JUDGE
