View this case - free  

Overview: While Conn. Gen. Stat. ¿ 52-123 cured circumstantial errors in misnaming defendants, the statute did not apply to a mortgagee which brought a foreclosure action in its trade name rather than its legal corporate name, since the mortgagee initiated the lawsuit as a fictitious entity with no legal existence; thus, the court lacked jurisdiction.

Overview: Trial court lacked subject matter jurisdiction in foreclosure action as plaintiff trade name had no standing to sue; as trade name never legally existed, there was no legally recognized entity for which there could be a substitution pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat. ¿ 52-109, so substitution of mortgage assignee did not cure the jurisdictional defect.
