Order
17/05/2022
Appellants (owner and driver) have filed this appeal,
assailing judgment and award dated 07.02.2018 passed by MACT,
Jhunjhunu in claim case No.1433/2013 whereby compensation of
Rs.5,30,000/- along with interest @ 7.5% per annum has been
awarded in favour of claimants and Insurance company has been
exonerated.
Counsel for appellants are owner and driver of the vehicle in
question. Counsel for appellants submits that the Tribunal has
committed illegality in exonerating the Insurance Company. In
case of breach of condition of Insurance policy due to not having
the valid permit, at the most, the Tribunal could have passed the
order for "pay and recovery" instead of exonerating the Insurance
Company as a whole.
Counsel for appellants further submits that appellants have
filed the permit along with an application under Order 41 Rule 27
CPC in the present appeal.
(2 of 2) [CMA-2433/2018]
Counsel for respondents claimants submits that appellants
are liable to pay the compensation, however, due to ex-parte stay
order, not a single penny of compensation has been paid.
Heard counsel for both parties.
Appeal is admitted for hearing.
Since counsel for respondents has already put in appearance,
notices need not be issued.
In case appellants deposit a lumpsum amount of
Rs.2,50,000/- within period of eight weeks before the Tribunal, the
execution of the impugned award against appellants shall remain
stayed. However, in case of non-deposition, respondents-claimants
would free to proceed with the execution of award.
On deposition of such amount, the same be disbursed to
respondents-claimants.
Record of the Tribunal be sent back in order to complete the
proceedings of deposition and disbursement and after completing the
same record be returned to this Court.
The additional documents would be considered at the time of
hearing of appeal, subject to admissibility and relevancy of the
documents.
With aforesaid observations, the stay application and application
for vacation of stay order as well as application under Order 41 Rule 27
CPC stand disposed of.
