State v. Schonagel

2 Citing cases

  1. State v. Bernier

    46 Conn. App. 350 (Conn. App. Ct. 1997)   Cited 6 times
    In State v. Bernier, 46 Conn. App. 350, 371 (1997), rev'd on other grounds, 246 Conn. 63 (1998), Judge Ronan speaks of the legal system having a "presumption of retroactivity."

    The fact that the defendant's house was burned does not mean his expectation of privacy is any less reasonable because "a fire does not necessarily diminish the owner's reasonable expectation of privacy in the burned building." State v. Schonagel, 189 Conn. 752, 761, 459 A.2d 106 (1983), vacated and remanded, 465 U.S. 1002, 104 S.Ct. 990, 79 L.Ed.2d 224, withdrawal of appeal noted, 192 Conn. 652, 473 A.2d 300 (1984). Warrantless searches and seizures inside a home are presumptively unreasonable.

  2. Brunswick v. Inland Wetlands Commission

    25 Conn. App. 543 (Conn. App. Ct. 1991)   Cited 31 times
    Noting that due process of law requires that writ commencing action be signed "by . . . a . . . commissioner of the Superior Court . . . or a . . . clerk of the court to which it is returnable"

    We do not agree. The plaintiffs improperly rely on State v. Schonagel, 192 Conn. 652, 473 A.2d 300 (1984) and M L Homes, Inc. v. Zoning Planning Commission, 187 Conn. 232 445 A.2d 159 (1982). These cases are inapposite.
