" (Citation omitted; internal quotation marks omitted.) Berger v. Deutermann , 197 Conn. App. 421, 427, 231 A.3d 1281, cert. denied, 335 Conn. 956, 239 A.3d 318 (2020). On the basis of the record before us, we simply have no way to assess whether, as the plaintiff claims, the jury's verdict was "palpably against the evidence."
In the absence of these transcripts, we cannot evaluate the defendant's arguments in support of his appellate claims without impermissibly resorting to speculation. See Berger v. Deutermann , 197 Conn. App. 421, 425–26, 231 A.3d 1281 (declining to consider plaintiff's claims on appeal when plaintiff failed to order transcripts from trial), cert. denied, 335 Conn. 956, 239 A.3d 318 (2020). Accordingly, we decline to review these claims.
