THIS TRANSFER PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 03.04.2025, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
2 TR P C 141/25 2025:KER:28862 O R D E R (Dated this the 3rd day of April 2025)
The petitioner is the claimant in O.P.(M.V.) No.680 of 2019 on the files of the MACT, Thiruvananthapuram, which is filed claiming compensation following an accident happened on 1.12.2018, near Y.M.R. Junction, Thiruvananthapuram. O.P.(M.V.) No.681 of 2019, arising out of the same incident, was filed before the same MACT, by another person. Thus, both the claims were pending before the Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal, Thiruvananthapuram, and they are ripe for trial. 2. While so, for administrative purpose, the petitioner’s case was transferred to the 3rd Additional MACT, Thiruvananthapuram and the O.P.(M.V.) No.681 of 2019, was transferred to the 1st Additional MACT, Thiruvananthapuram, thus both the claims arising out of the same incident are pending before two different Tribunals. Now, the 3rd, 6th and 7th Additional Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Thiruvananthapuram are designated as courts for
3 TR P C 141/25 2025:KER:28862 trial of cases under Section 302 IPC and therefore, the MACT cases are not being taken. The claim in the petition is of the year 2019 and if the case is delayed, it will cause irreparable injury and hardship to the petitioner. Therefore, seeks a transfer of O.P.(M.V) No.680 of 2019, pending before the 3rd Additional MACT, Thiruvananthapuram to 1st Additional MACT, Thiruvananthapuram, to hear along with O.P.(M.V.) No.681 of 2019. 3. The 2nd respondent has no objection in transferring the above case.
Since both the claims are arising out of the same incident, to avoid conflicting decisions in the matter and the fact that the claim is of the year 2019, I deem it appropriate to allow this Transfer Petition. Accordingly, O.P.(M.V.) No.680 of 2019 pending before the 3rd Additional Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal, Thiruvananthapuram is transferred to the 1st Additional Motor
4 TR P C 141/25 2025:KER:28862 Accidents Claims Tribunal, Thiruvananthapuram. The 1st Additional Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal, Thiruvananthapuram, on receipt of the records from 3rd Additional Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal, Thiruvananthapuram, shall issue notice to the parties and dispose of the case, as early as possible, in accordance with law.
