Supreme Court of Connecticut
Thomas C. Foley v. State Elections Enforcement Commission — Gruendel, J., concurring
July 20, 2010297 Conn. 764
Summary
Justice Gruendel concurred in affirming the denial of injunctive relief but disagreed with the majority's construction of the statute governing qualifying contributions. He would read the statute's conjunctive structure and $100 limitation to restrict each individual's qualifying contributions to gubernatorial and joint campaign committees to $100, an interpretation he believed was confirmed by the legislative history. He also concluded that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in balancing the equities against an injunction.
