White v. Burnsgreen

2009The force of our precedent makes clear that the statute's very ambiguity as to the existence of a waiver ends the interpretive inquiry in favor of preserving immunity; see, e.g., White v. Burns, 213 Conn. 307, 312 , 567 A.2d 1195 (1990); and this result is fully in accord with the dictates of § 1-2z.
