     THIS APPEAL, COMING ON FOR ORDERS, THIS DAY,
JUDGMENT WAS DELIVERED THEREIN AS UNDER:


CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE N.S.SANJAY GOWDA

                     ORAL JUDGMENT

(PER: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE N.S.SANJAY GOWDA)

1. Since in this appeal, the insurance company is challenging the award of compensation of Rs.20,000/- granted by the Tribunal for the injuries suffered by the claimant, without going into the aspects of liability of the insurance company, having regard to the fact that the sum involved is only Rs.20,000/-, I find no justification to entertain the present appeal. The appeal is therefore dismissed.

2. Since the appeal itself is disposed of, there is no need to consider the aspect of delay and hence, the application for condonation of delay stand disposed of.

3. The amount in deposit, if any, shall be transferred to the Tribunal for disbursal in terms of the award. -3-

NC: 2024:KHC-K:5503 MFA No. 201002 of 2019

4. In view of the disposal of the appeal, all pending interlocutory applications, if any, stand disposed of.
