Supreme Court of Connecticut
Doe v. Boy Scouts of America Corp.
December 20, 2016323 Conn. 942
Summary
The court denied the defendant's motion for reconsideration en banc. The dissenting justice would have granted reconsideration because the prior decision failed to address controlling reasoning concerning the effect of express statutory preemption on competing statutes of limitations. The dissent concluded that the negligence claims were governed by the two-year limitations period rather than the thirty-year period, and that the court's contrary decision conflicted with established Connecticut precedent.
