Supreme Court of Connecticut
Conroy v. Idlibi
May 3, 2022343 Conn. 201
Summary
The court affirmed the denial of the defendant’s motion to open a marital dissolution judgment based on alleged fraud. It held that the alleged false interrogatory response could not have affected the judgment because the plaintiff admitted its falsity during the dissolution proceedings, and that additional evidence concerning the alleged assault was unlikely to change the result because the dissolution court had already found the plaintiff’s account not credible. The court therefore concluded that the trial court did not abuse its discretion.
