Supreme Court of Connecticut
Vincent Metro, LLC v. Yah Realty, LLC
July 20, 2010297 Conn. 489
Summary
The court held that the plaintiff's interpleader action was not moot merely because the claimant defendants agreed that the disputed funds should be paid to one of them. Because the stipulation did not bind or discharge the stakeholder, the court could still provide practical relief by determining the plaintiff's liability and directing distribution of the funds. The judgment dismissing the action was therefore reversed and the case was remanded. No separate opinions were filed.
