Heard learned advocates for the respective parties. 2. Learned advocate for the respondent/s pointed out that the captioned appeal may not deserve the consideration on merits owing to the smallness of the amount awarded to the claimant/s. It is noticed that the learned Tribunal has awarded amount of Rs.4,41,000/- to the claimant/s. However, the amount under dispute is of Rs.3,96,900/-. This is a small and meager amount and considering the aspect of having no dispute in regards to the road accident, I am of the opinion that this appeal may not deserve consideration, more particularly, on the ground of smallness of amount. Accordingly, present first appeal stands dismissed. 3. It is made clear that present first appeal is dismissed on account of smallness of the amount and the order passed by this C/FA/3867/2012 ORDER DATED: 24/12/2025 Court shall not be treated as precedent so as to say that this Court has decided any issue on merit. The whole purpose to dismiss the appeal on account of smallness of amount is with a view to avoid hardship both physically and financially on the part of the original claimant to appear and defend the case. 4. Therefore, this order shall not be cited as precedent in any pending matters before any Court in the State of Gujarat. 5. If any amount of compensation, or any statutory amount, lying deposited with the Registry of this Court shall be transmitted to the learned Tribunal concerned. 6.
