Opinion
The plaintiff's petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 157 Conn.App. 312, 115 A.3d 1143 (2015), is granted, limited to the following issues:
“1. Did the Appellate Court properly determine that General Statutes § 46a–104 does not authorize the award of punitive damages?
“2. If the answer to the first question is in the negative, does the award of punitive damages in § 46a–104 fall within the province of the court or the jury?”
ROBINSON, J., did not participate in the consideration of or decision on this petition.
