Supreme Court of Connecticut
Roach v. Transwaste, Inc.
August 1, 2023347 Conn. 405
Summary
The court held that the plaintiff presented sufficient evidence to support the jury's lost-wages award in his wrongful-termination action. Reasonable certainty requires evidence enabling the fact finder to make a fair and reasonable estimate, not mathematical precision, and testimonial evidence alone may satisfy that standard when it is reliable and nonspeculative. The jury's calculation was based on uncontroverted testimony and disclosed figures, so the award was not impermissibly speculative.
