Supreme Court of Connecticut

In Re Egypt E.

July 21, 2016322 Conn. 231

Summary

The court held that the respondents' appeals could not be dismissed as moot based on an unchallenged finding that reunification efforts were unnecessary because clerical omissions made it unclear whether they had adequate notice of that finding and an opportunity to appeal it. Because the recordkeeping error potentially impaired their due process rights in a parental-rights proceeding, the court reversed the termination judgments and remanded for a new trial. No separate opinions were filed.
