                        J U D G M E N T

This is an appeal preferred against the award of the

Claims Tribunal, Muvattupuzha in OP(MV)No.1420/2004.

The claimant did not get ready with the matter nor did

tender any evidence and therefore the Tribunal was forced to

dismiss the application.

2. Now it is submitted that there was no negligence of

intentional act to avert the court and therefore, an

opportunity may be given.

3. Considering the said submission, I am inclined to

grant an opportunity. Therefore the award under challenge

is set aside and the matter is remitted back to the Tribunal

with a direction to permit all concerned to produce

documentary as well as oral evidence in support of their

respective contentions and then dispose of the matter in

accordance with law. The appellant and the insurance

company are directed to appear before the Tribunal on

: 2 :

21.1.2010 and the claimant is further directed to take out

notice to R1 and R2 in the claim petition after he enters

appearance for a proper disposal of the case.

Disposed of accordingly.
