Hon'ble Mr. Justice Manoj Kumar Tiwari

The High Court disposed of Oriental Insurance's writ petition challenging the Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal's order that had entertained a claim petition filed beyond the six-month limitation period under Section 166 of the Motor Vehicles Act. The court held that since the Supreme Court is seized of the identical issue in a pending Special Leave to Appeal, no useful purpose would be served by deciding the matter, and accordingly disposed of the petition with the direction that the tribunal's impugned order shall abide by the outcome of the Supreme Court's final decision. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
