Order

1. The present appeal has been preferred against the judgment
and award dated 12.07.2017 passed by Motor Accident Claims
Tribunal (First) Bikaner in Claim Case No. 342/2008 (1029/2014)
whereby the claim petition as preferred by the claimant stood
dismissed.
2. A Memorandum of Understanding has been filed by both the
counsels jointly with a submission that respondent-claimant
Insurance Company has accepted its liability and has agreed to
pay a sum of Rs. 6,50,000/- (lumpsum) as a full and final
settlement to the appellant-claimant qua MAC Case no. 342/2008.
The claimant also has agreed to accept the said amount as a full
and final settlement.
3. The Memorandum of Understanding as filed is taken on
record.
4. In view of the submissions made in the Memorandum of
Understanding, the judgment and award dated 12.07.2017 is
hereby quashed and set aside. The MAC Case No.342/2008 as
preferred by the claimant is partly allowed. As the claimant has
settled his case finally for an amount of Rs.6,50,000/-, the
claimant is hereby held entitled for the said amount of
Rs.6,50,000/- to be paid within a period of two months from
today by respondent-Insurance Company. The amount shall be
deposited by the Insurance Company with the learned Tribunal
within a period of three months from now, failing which, the same
