Argued April 9, 1987
Decision released May 26, 1987
Action to recover upon an insurance policy, brought to the Superior Court in the judicial district of Fairfield and referred to Hon. Milton H. Belinkie, state trial referee; judgment for the named defendant, from which the plaintiffs appealed to this court. No error.
Robert M. Davidson, with whom were James P. Driscoll and, on the brief, Thomas M. Conroy, for the appellants (plaintiffs).
James R. Smith, for the appellee (named defendant).
In this suit by the plaintiff mortgagees against the named defendant, the fire insurer of the property subject to the plaintiffs' mortgage, the plaintiffs appeal from the judgment of the trial court for the defendant. Having fully considered the claims of the plaintiffs, we are persuaded that the case is controlled by Burritt Mutual Savings Bank v. Transamerica Ins. Co., 180 Conn. 71, 428 A.2d 333 (1980), and that the trial court correctly read that controlling precedent.
There were also two individual defendants who were cited in as defendants in the trial court. They are not involved in this appeal. We refer herein to the named defendant as the defendant.
