    Today’s show features a range of legal topics, starting with a landlord vs tenant dispute involving unauthorized entry onto property, followed by a case against an insurance company over roof damage and the unexpected need for additional repairs. We also took live calls from listeners, including one seeking advice on wrongful termination and another raising a unique question about a vehicle/bicycle accident caused by a deer.

    1. Becky underwent a diagnostic procedure at UConn Health Center and became very ill when she had a severe reaction to a dye injected into her during the procedure. She sues UConn Health Center, and others. When does the statute of limitations clock start ticking? We look at what the Court said in this case. the time limits to sue are not what many people think. 2. A really unusual case: In a fight over Dylan's estate (no, not Bob Dylan), it's his parents versus his daughter for who gets the estate. What led to this dispute? The Connecticut Parentage Act. We look at what the Superior Court did with the parents' claim that when Dylan's parental rights to MacKenzie were terminated by the Court, she lost the right to inherit from him. Spoiler alert: this one comes out differently than you might have expected. 3. Katerina hired Carlos, a registered Home Improvement Contractor, to renovate her house in Moodus, Ct. Carlos said they "didn't need" a written contract. Katerina paid him, but the work was unfinished, poorly done, etc. He refused to refund her money. Here's what the Court did with Carlos and his Limited Liability Company. A lesson for us consumers — and for contractors. 4. Jack, a middle-school student in Wilton, Ct. gets seriously injured when Grant, a fellow student, pulls a chair out from under him when Jack went to sit down in the cafeteria. Not funny, Grant. But Jack and his mom sued the Town of Wilton. Can the Town be responsible for this occurrence? We look at what the Court did, and why.
