Connecticut Appellate Court
Decided December 11, 2018No. AC40752PublishedCited by 2 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtBishop, J.
The plaintiff, Jolen, Inc., appeals from the summary judgment rendered by the trial court in favor of the defendant, Brodie & Stone, PLC, and Brodie & Stone International, PLC, 1 on the plaintiff's claim of breach of fiduciary duty. The plaintiff claims on appeal that, in view of the court's unchallenged determination that an agency relationship existed between the parties, its subsequent failure to conclude that such relationship was per se fiduciary in nature was incorrect as a matter of law. 2 We agree and, accordingly, reverse the judgment of the trial court.
