Overview: Because an executrix's deceased husband's statement was hearsay within hearsay, it was inadmissible under the Dead Man's Statute, Conn. Gen. Stat. ? 52-172, and not based on personal knowledge to be an affidavit. As no proof existed that a company's product contained asbestos, summary judgment on an asbestos products liability action was granted.

Overview: Wife's complaint did not show a police officer actually "publicized" her private information or had any reason to believe it would be made public. At most, she alleged the officer's disclosure of police records indirectly led to a violation of her right to privacy. She also failed to show the officer knew the risk of harm to support her NIED claim.
