Connecticut National Bank v. Voog
Supreme Court of Connecticut
Decided May 30, 1995No. 15056PublishedCited by 92 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtKatz, J.
The dispositive issue before the court is whether the trial court abused its discretion in concluding that the defendant’s proposed defenses and counterclaim were unrelated to the plaintiff’s complaint and could be raised in a separate cause of action and, consequently, in sustaining the plaintiff’s objection to the defendant’s request for leave to amend his response to include those defenses and the counterclaim. We conclude that it did abuse its discretion, and therefore reverse the trial court’s subsequent rendering of judgment in favor of the plaintiff.
The following facts are undisputed.…
