A three-year-old girl, anxious about Santa Claus not making it to her home after she had been involved in a car accident, was offered €25,000 damages for psychiatric injuries, a judge heard today.

Judge James McCourt approved the settlement offer to now six-year-old Missy Elliott, by the insurers of Denis Osula, who rear-ended the Elliott family car at Ballymun Road, Glasnevin, Dublin 9 three years ago.
