Because the issue of whether a corporate officer has committed or participated in the wrongful conduct of a corporation is a question of fact, it is subject to the clearly erroneous standard of review. See Sargent v. Smith, 272 Conn. 722, 728, 865 A.2d 1129 (2005). "[A reviewing court] cannot retry the facts or pass upon the credibility of the witnesses. . . . A finding of fact is clearly erroneous when there is no evidence in the record to support it . . . or when although there is evidence to support it, the reviewing court on the entire evidence is left with the definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed."

Where contract language is clear and unambiguous, the question of contractual intent presents a question of law for the court. . . ."
