SC20520 - State v. Lori T. (“In this certified appeal, we must examine the meaning of
certain language used in General Statutes § 53a-98 (a) (3), a provision that
criminalizes custodial interference. Specifically, we must determine whether
the actions, or inactions, of the defendant, Lori T., were sufficient to satisfy
the ‘‘otherwise refuses to return a child’’ aspect of custodial interference in
the second degree. General Statutes § 53a-98 (a) (3). The defendant appeals
from the judgment of the Appellate Court, affirming the judgment of conviction,
rendered after a jury trial, of three counts of custodial interference in the
second degree. See State v. Lori T., 197 Conn. App. 675, 677, 696, 232 A.3d 13
(2020). On appeal, the defendant claims that the Appellate Court incorrectly
concluded that § 53a-98 (a) (3) is not unconstitutionally vague as applied to
her and that the evidence was sufficient to support her conviction. See id.,
677. We affirm the judgment of the Appellate Court.”)
