Simmons v. UTC/Sikorsky Aircraft Div., 3904 CRB-4-98-9 (September 17, 1999).

See, Simmons, § 31-299b.

Pantanella v. Enfield Ford, 3377 CRB-1-96-7 (January 28, 1998), aff’d, 65 Conn. App. 46 (2001), cert. denied, 258 Conn. 930 (2001).

CIGA could not prevail on arguments that trier did not have jurisdiction to rule on a CIGA Act matter, that the alleged injury was not a “covered claim,” and that the claimant failed to exhaust his rights under other insurance policies before seeking payment from CIGA. However, the trier did not make a finding regarding satisfaction of the § 38a-841 two-year statute of limitations, so the case was remanded on that ground. See, Pantanella, § 31-298, § 31-299b, § 31-301. Factual findings. Subsequent decisions in Pantanella, 4220 CRB-1-00-4 (December 19, 2000), § 31-298, § 31-300; Pantanella, 3937 CRB-1-98-11 (January 7, 2000), aff’d, 65 Conn. App. 46 (2001), § 31-299b, § 31-300, § 31-301. Factual findings. Also cited at § 31-298, § 31-315.

Hunnihan v. Mattatuck Mfg. Co., 16 Conn. Workers’ Comp. Rev. Op. 72, 2297 CRB-5-95-2 (October 30, 1996), rev’d, 243 Conn. 438 (1997).
