    DOUGLAS HANEY vs. DEPARTMENT OF HIGHWAYS
    (No. CC-78-226)
    No appearance by claimant.
    
      Henry Haslebacher, Attorney at Law, for respondent.
   PER CURIAM:

This claim was submitted upon a duly executed written stipulation to the effect that the respondent is liable for damages in the sum of $309.50, based upon the following facts: During snow removal operations in the winter of 1977-1978, respondent’s crews negligently damaged certain portions of claimant’s fence on Dogtown Road in Barbour County, West Virginia. Respondent is therefore liable to claimant for the sum of $309.50, which is a fair and equitable estimate of the damage sustained by the claimant.

Based on the foregoing facts, an award in the above amount is hereby made.

Award of $309.50.
