Action to recover damages for unjust enrichment, brought to the Superior Court in the judicial district of Waterbury, where the court, Stoughton, J., rendered judgment of nonsuit in favor of the defendant; thereafter, the court denied the plaintiff's motion to set aside the judgment of nonsuit, and the plaintiff appealed to this court. No error.
Paul J. Yamin filed a brief for the appellant (plaintiff).
Susan M. Naide filed a brief for the appellee (defendant).
In this action, judgment of nonsuit was rendered against the plaintiff for failing to appear at the time the case was scheduled for trial. The plaintiff moved to open the nonsuit, which motion was denied by the court. The plaintiff avers error and claims the trial court abused its discretion in denying the motion to open the nonsuit. We disagree. This case is governed by the principles of Gionfrido v. Wharf Realty, Inc., 193 Conn. 28, 474 A.2d 787 (1984).
