Amy Jeanne CONWAY v. TOWN OF WILTON et al.

Supreme Court of Connecticut.

Decided Dec. 11, 1995.

Ira B. Grudberg and David B. Grudberg, New Haven, in support of the petition.

Raymond J. Plouffe, Jr., Bridgeport, Hugh W. Cuthbertson, New Haven, and Dana Shaw MacKinnon, Hartford, in opposition.

The plaintiff's petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 39 Conn.App. 280, 664 A.2d 327 (AC 13524), is granted, limited to the following issues:

"1. Should this court consider its holding in Manning v. Barenz, 221 Conn. 256, 603 A.2d 399 (1992), that the recreational use statute, General Statutes § 52-557f et seq., applies to municipalities?

"2. If the answer to the first question is no, did the Appellate Court improperly conclude that the trial court was correct in rendering summary judgment in favor of the defendant Connecticut Association of Secondary Schools (CASS), where the plaintiff claimed that CASS owed a duty to the plaintiff independent of any duty it may have owed as an 'owner of land' within the meaning of the recreational use statute?"

The Supreme Court docket number is SC 15335.
