Conn. Practice Book § 22-2 (2026)

Sec. 22-2. Assignment for Hearing (a) Appeals from decisions of the Employment Security Board of Review are privileged with respect to their assignment for trial, but they shall be claimed for the short calendar. The judicial authority, however, may order the appeal placed on the administrative appeal trial list. (b) In any appeal in which one of the parties is not represented by counsel and in which the party taking the appeal does not claim the case for the short calendar or trial within a reasonable time after the return day, the judicial authority may of its own motion dismiss the appeal, or the party ready to proceed may move for nonsuit or default as appropriate. (P.B. 1978-1997, Sec. 511B.)
