• 233 Conn. App. 147

Syllabus

The plaintiff appealed from the trial court's judgment dismissing his action for, inter alia, breach of contract, for lack of standing. The plaintiff claimed that the court erred in concluding that, as a member of a limited liability company, A Co., he did not have derivative authority to act on behalf of L Co., a limited partnership of which A Co. was the general partner. During the pendency of this appeal, A Co. was dissolved and ceased to act as general partner for L Co., and L Co. was dissolved, and a receiver was appointed to act on L Co.'s behalf. Held: This court dismissed the plaintiff's appeal for lack of standing, as the plaintiff did not have a specific personal or legal interest in this appeal from the dismissal of his action concerning L Co.'s rights with respect to a certain mortgage refinance, A Co. and L Co. having been dissolved and a receiver having been appointed pursuant to statute (§ 52-509 (a)) for L Co., and the receiver, rather than the plaintiff, is the only person authorized pursuant to statute (§ 52-511) to act on L Co.'s behalf.
