PROCEDURAL HISTORY
Action to foreclose a mortgage on certain real property, and for other relief, brought to the Superior Court in the judicial district of Fairfield, where the court, West, J., granted the motion filed by the Ford Consumer Finance Company, Inc., to be substituted as plaintiff; thereafter, the court granted the motion for summary judgment filed by the defendant Northern State Financial, LLC, and rendered a partial judgment thereon in its favor; subsequently, the court rendered judgment for the substitute plaintiff against the named defendant only, and the substitute plaintiff appealed from the judgment in favor of the defendant Northern State Financial, LLC, to the Appellate Court, Heiman, Schaller and Spear, Js., which affirmed the trial court's judgment, and the substitute plaintiff, on the granting of certification, appealed to this court. Appeal dismissed.
Abraham I. Gordon, with whom were Ronald D. Japha and, on the brief, Richard S. Scalo, for the appellant (substitute plaintiff).
Beecher A. Larson, with whom was Robert A. Solari, for the appellee (defendant Northern State Financial, LLC).
OPINION
After examining the record on appeal and considering the briefs and oral arguments of the parties, we have determined that the appeal in this case should be dismissed on the ground that certification was improvidently granted.
We granted the substitute plaintiff's petition for certification limited to the following issue: "Did the Appellate Court properly affirm the trial court's summary judgment?" Associates Financial Services of America, Inc. v. Sorensen, 243 Conn. 944, 704 A.2d 799 (1997).
