This claim was submitted for decision based upon the allegations in the Notice of claim and the

claimant's vehicle. Respondent admits the facts of the claim and that the amount claimed is fair and
reasonable.
Accordingly, the Court makes an award to claimant in the amount of $113.37 for the damage to his
vehicle.
Award of $113.37.
