How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• reaffirming Ochs and emphasizing that ‘‘[this court has] declined to carve out any exception . . . to the normal duty of a tortfeasor to assume liability for all the damages that he or she has caused’’
• no offer of proof necessary because ‘‘[i]t [was] clear from the record what the [wit- ness’] answer would have been’’
• failure to permit offer of proof not reversible error where record is adequate for review
• ‘‘[t]he absence of an offer of proof may create a gap in the record that would invite inappropriate speculation on appeal about the possible substance of the excluded testimony’’
• “[b]ecause of our conclusion that the plaintiff has established her right to a retrial on all [her claims] . . . it is proper for us to give guidance on issues that are likely to recur on retrial”
• reversing evidentiary ruling as abuse of discretion
