No. 81
Argued December 8, 1969
Decided June 29, 1970

Syllabus
The appeal, involving the issue whether a Connecticut statutory requirement that tenants wishing to appeal from an eviction judgment must post a bond offends the Due Process or Equal Protection Cause if applied to foreclose appellate review for indigent tenants, is dismissed, as the record is ambiguous regarding the underlying reason appellants were denied an opportunity to appeal the eviction judgment.
5 Conn.Cir. 282, 250 A.2d 527, dismissed.
