Supreme Court of Connecticut
Garcia v. Cohen
March 17, 2020335 Conn. 3
Summary
The court held that the general verdict rule did not bar review of the plaintiff's instructional-error claim because she submitted properly framed interrogatories, alerted the trial court to its refusal to submit them, and renewed her objection after the jury charge. The court also held that she was not required to assert the refusal to submit interrogatories as an independent appellate claim. The judgment was reversed and the case was remanded for review of the claimed instructional error.
