Conn. Practice Book § 10-2 (2026)

Sec. 10-2. Pleading Legal Effect Acts and contracts may be stated according to their legal effect, but in so doing the pleading should be such as fairly to apprise the adverse party of the state of facts which it is intended to prove. Thus an act or promise by a principal, other than a corporation, if in fact proceeding from an agent known to the pleader, should be so stated; and the obligation of a spouse to pay for necessar- ies furnished to his or her spouse, whom he or she has driven from the marital house, should be stated according to the facts. (P.B. 1978-1997, Sec. 109.)
