Daily Lok Adalat Bench No.1 503 FAO-3879-2003 SMT. SAROJ BALA AND OTHERS VS. UNION OF INDIA AND OTHERS Present: Mr. Vipul Sharma, Advocate for Mr. Ashwani Arora, Advocate for the appellants. Mr. Avneet Awasthi, Addl. Standing Counsel for UT Chandigarh *** This appeal has been filed by the claimants-appellants against the award dated 25.07.2003 passed by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Chandigarh, seeking enhancement of the compensation awarded to them on account of the death of their son, Amit @ Bittu, due to the rash and negligent driving of a TATA 407 vehicle belonging to the Chandigarh Police. The case was entrusted to this Forum for the purpose of settlement. Today, the learned Addl. Standing Counsel for the U.T. Chandigarh has placed on record a photocopy of the order dated 03.01.2011 whereby the matter has already been disposed of by this Forum, wherein the compensation was enhanced by an additional amount of Rs. 1,12,000/- over and above the amount awarded by the learned MACT, vide order dated 03.01.2011. Photocopy of the said order is taken on record as Mark 'A', It appears that, due to the case record being fully burnt and without knowledge of the previous settlement, the office inadvertently listed the matter before this Forum once again. In view of the fact that the case has already been disposed of by this Forum vide order dated 03.01.2011, no further orders are required to be passed at this stage. Accordingly, the present case is disposed of as infructuous, with liberty to the appellants to file an appropriate application in the event the cheque of Rs.1,12,000/- for the enhanced amount is not handed over to them.
