Opinion
SCHALLER, J.
The plaintiff, Stephen Tirozzi, appeals from the summary judgment rendered by the trial court in favor of the defendant, Shelby Insurance Company. On appeal, the plaintiff claims that the trial court improperly determined that res judicata bars this second action when both the Connecticut legislature and *682the Supreme Court have changed and clarified the law that denied him recovery in the first action to enable him now to recover against his employer’s motor vehicle insurer. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
