• 235 Conn. App. 769

Syllabus

The plaintiff, whose marriage to the defendant previously had been dis- solved, appealed from the trial court's judgment granting the defendant's motion for modification of custody and awarding the parties' joint legal custody of their minor child and the defendant primary physical custody of the child. The plaintiff challenged, inter alia, the propriety of the court's custody order. Held: This court dismissed the appeal as moot, as there was no practical relief this court could afford the plaintiff because, during the pendency of the appeal, the challenged custody order had been superseded by a subsequent court order addressing the custody of the parties' child.
