James P. Sexton, Hartford, and Julia K. Conlin, in support of the petition.
Joseph T. O'Connor, Stamford, in opposition.
The plaintiff's petition for certification to appeal from the Appellate Court, 201 Conn. App. 225, 242 A.3d 481, is granted, limited to the following issue:
"Did the Appellate Court correctly determine that a New York law is substantive rather than procedural for choice-of-law purposes when that law would require a litigant in the parties’ circumstances who is seeking to obtain postjudgment relief in a marital dissolution case to file a plenary action rather than a motion to open the dissolution judgment?"
ROBINSON, C. J., did not participate in the consideration of or decision on this petition.
