Outcome
The Connecticut Appellate Court reversed the trial court's dismissal of plaintiff's age and gender discrimination action, holding that the accidental failure of suit statute (§ 52-592) applied because the prior dismissal resulted from excusable neglect (attorney's family medical emergencies) rather than egregious misconduct.
