Unistar Properties, LLC v. Conservation & Inland Wetlands Commission
green
1 sentence2015Although the preceding analysis disposes of the par- ties’ claims, because the trial court and the commis- sioner relied heavily on this court’s decision in Unistar Properties, LLC v. Conservation & Inland Wetlands Commission, supra, 293 Conn. 93 , as supporting the department’s authority for its expansive requests for information, we briefly address that decision. | 1 | 2015–2015 |

The plaintiff cites Cohen v. Cohen, 182 Conn. 193 (1980). | 1 | 1996–1996 |

green
1 sentence1868The office of a videlicet is to explain or particularize a preceding clause in the declaration and make that which is too general or obscure, definite and certain. 1 Swift Dig., 692; Stukeley v. Butler, Hobart, 171; Mallett v. Stevenson, 26 Conn., 428 . | 1 | 1868–1868 |
