towards salvage value). Out of the said assessed amount of Rs.3,21,894/-, the
Opposite Party released a sum of Rs.2,99,360/- to the complainant after
deducting the necessary excess of Rs.22,533/-, which was duly accepted by the
complainant, in full and final settlement of his claim, and the same is evident
from the satisfaction note (Annexure
R-3). The complainant failed to adduce any evidence, that the same was executed
under coercion and undue pressure. Hence, in the absence of any tangible
evidence, we do not find any merit in the contention of
the Counsel for the complainant and the same is rejected. Once, the complainant accepted the claim in
full and final settlement without any coercion and undue presence, then he had
no right to raise any dispute as held in
