Jameskutty Jacob vs United India Insurance Co. Ltd. & Ors

The case concerns a motor accident claim where the owner of the vehicle contested ownership, asserting the vehicle had been sold prior to the accident. The Motor Accident Claims Tribunal held both the owner and the insurance company jointly and severally liable for the compensation. The primary legal issue involves the extent of the insurance company's liability under an 'Act only' policy versus a policy with unlimited liability.
