Opinion

(7204)

Argued May 17, 1989

Decision released June 1, 1989

Action for the dissolution of a marriage, and for other relief, brought to the Superior Court in the judicial district of Hartford-New Britain at Hartford and tried to the court, Spada, J.; judgment dissolving the marriage and granting certain other relief, from which the defendant appealed to this court. No error.

William J. Tracy, Jr., with whom, on the brief, were William J. Eddy, Timothy W. Furey and Christopher M. Storm, for the appellant (defendant).

Sid M. Miller, for the appellee (plaintiff).


We have carefully considered each of the defendant's claims of error including a plenary review of the record, transcript and briefs of the parties. As the appellant, the defendant has the burden of showing that there was error in the judgment from which the appeal was taken. Janet v. Scarpetti, 17 Conn. App. 825, 552 A.2d 1225 (1989); Manzin v. United Bank Trust Co., 6 Conn. App. 513, 517, 506 A.2d 169 (1986); B. Holden J. Daly, Connecticut Evidence 60. After affording the claims of error the appropriate scope of review, we conclude that the defendant has not met her burden.
