Opinion

FILE No. 1069

Argued February 23, 1982 —

Decided October 15, 1982

Petition for an order of support, brought to the Superior Court in the sixth geographical area where the court, Kremski, J., rendered judgment ordering support, from which the defendant has appealed. Appeal dismissed.

LeRoy Jones, for the appellant (defendant).

Stephen J. McGovern, assistant attorney general, for the appellee (state).

PER CURIAM.

The state instituted this petition for a judgment of support against the defendant as the putative father of a minor child who had received state assistance under the aid to families with dependent children program. Following the entry of judgment in favor of the plaintiff in this action, the defendant instituted a separate action under General Statutes 52-270, seeking a new trial on the issue of paternity. In the latter action, judgment was rendered in favor of the defendant granting him a new trial. The state appealed from that judgment in Sullivan v. State, 38 Conn. Sup. 534, 453 A.2d 91 (1982).
