Supreme Court of Connecticut

James Marciano v. Diego Jimenez

December 22, 2016324 Conn. 70

Summary

The court held that the collateral-source statute bars any reduction of an economic-damages award when any right of subrogation exists for the collateral source, even if the right is partial or subject to negotiated satisfaction. Applying the statute's plain and mandatory language, the court reversed the judgment and directed reinstatement of the jury's original verdict.
