White v. Mazda Motor of Am., Inc.

Frank J. McCoy, Jr., Tolland, and Alexander J. Sarris, in support of the petition. Paul D. Williams and John W. Cerreta, Hartford, in opposition.

The plaintiff's petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 139 Conn.App. 39, 54 A.3d 643, is granted, limited to the following issues:

“1. Did the Appellate Court properly conclude that the plaintiff had failed to raise the malfunction theory claim at trial?

“2. If the answer to the first question is in the negative, did the plaintiff present a prima facie case under the ‘malfunction theory’ of products liability?”
