Contract Appellate Court Opinions

by Oumano, Emily

 

AC47029 - Fischer v. M&T Bank, N.A. (“The plaintiff, Alan Fischer, appeals from the judgment of the trial court dismissing his action for, inter alia, breach of contract against the defendants, M&T Bank, N.A. (M&T Bank), formerly known as People’s United Bank, N.A. (People’s United), and two former bank employees, Kenneth Nuzzolo and Virgilio Lopez, Jr. On appeal, the plaintiff raises a number of claims related to the court’s dismissal of his action. We dismiss the appeal for lack of standing.”)

AC46784 - Waterbury v. Watertown (“The defendant, the town of Watertown, appeals from the judgment of the trial court, rendered after a bench trial, in favor of the plaintiff, the city of Waterbury. On appeal, the defendant claims that the court improperly (1) concluded that, in the absence of a contractual agreement, General Statutes §§ 7-2391 and 7-2552 authorize the plaintiff to set the rates it charges properties located in the defendant municipality for the continued use of its water and sewer services, (2) concluded that those statutes impliedly authorize the plaintiff to sue the defendant to collect unpaid water and sewer service charges incurred by those properties, and (3) found the plaintiff’s water and sewer service rates to be reasonable and equitable. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.”)
