AC40976 - Monroe v. Ostrosky (Injunction; "The defendant . . . appeals from the judgment of the trial court denying his motion to open and to vacate the court's judgment in favor of the plaintiffs, the town of Monroe and several of its agencies and employees. The defendant claims that he did not have notice of and an opportunity to be heard at an evidentiary hearing. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.")

AC40975 - Newtown v. Ostrosky (Injunction; "The defendant . . . appeals from the judgment of the trial court denying his motion to dismiss the action and to open and vacate the court's prior judgment that had been rendered in favor of the plaintiffs, the town of Newtown and several of its agencies and employees. On appeal, the defendant claims that (1) the court lacked subject matter jurisdiction to adjudicate the plaintiffs' claims, (2) he was deprived of his due process right to notice and the opportunity to be heard on the merits of his case, and (3) the court had continuing jurisdiction to enforce and to modify its injunctive orders even if the motion to open and to vacate judgments was untimely. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.")
