Supreme Court of Connecticut
Esposito v. Stamford — dissenting
August 2, 2024350 Conn. 209
Summary
The court affirmed the Compensation Review Board's denial of permanent partial disability benefits because the decedent's entitlement had not vested before his death. The dissent argued that the administrative law judge expressly found that the decedent had reached maximum medical improvement by June 9, 1998, and that this factual finding was supported by the record and entitled to deference. Justice Ecker, dissenting, would have reversed and remanded for consideration of the surviving spouse's entitlement and the defendants' claimed credit.
