Supreme Court of Connecticut

Doe v. Madison

July 30, 2021340 Conn. 1

Summary

The court affirmed summary judgments for the town, board of education, and principal in claims arising from a teacher's sexual abuse of three students. It held that the evidence did not establish reasonable cause triggering a ministerial reporting duty, did not establish a sufficiently specific ministerial duty governing professional attire, and did not satisfy the imminent-harm exception to discretionary-act immunity. It also held that monitoring security-camera footage was discretionary because no policy prescribed how or when the footage had to be monitored.
