THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE D.S.R.VARMA CIVIL MISCELLANEOUS APPEAL No.3320 of 2000 ORAL JUDGMENT: Heard both sides. 2. Aggrieved by the order and decree, dated 28.08.1998, passed by the Additional District Judge-cum- Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Madanapalle (for brevity “the Tribunal”), in O.P.No.26 of 1993, awarding a sum of Rs.8,000/- towards compensation for the injuries sustained by the petitioner therein in a road accident that occurred on 24.06.1992, the appellant-United India Insurance Company Limited has filed the present Civil Miscellaneous Appeal. 3. I have carefully perused the impugned award, passed by the Tribunal, and in my view, filing an appeal against such an award, wherein only a meagre sum of Rs.8,000/- was awarded towards compensation, and asking the claimant to come to this Court to defend this appeal is nothing short of persecution. In other words, filing of appeal against such an award is wholly uncharitable and inhumane and hence, the appeal deserves to be dismissed. 4. In the result, the Civil Miscellaneous Appeal is dismissed. However, there shall be no order as to costs. _____________________ JUSTICE D.S.R.VARMA 15th July 2010 dr
