Overview: Although additional evidence was needed to determine if the parties' contracts complied with Conn. Gen. Stat. ?? 52-581, 52-550, which precluded the son's motion to strike, the mother's "severe financial distress and hardship" did not turn the son's breach of contract into a violation of CUTPA; therefore, the CUTPA claim could be struck.
