• 203 Conn. App. 811

Syllabus

Convicted, on a conditional plea of nolo contendere, of the crime of larceny in the first degree, the defendant appealed to this court. He claimed that the trial court improperly denied his motion to dismiss, which alleged that the prosecution had been instituted improperly. Held that, because the defendant failed to challenge all of the court's independent bases for denying his motion to dismiss, the court was unable to provide the defendant with any practical relief and, therefore, the appeal was moot and the court was without subject matter jurisdiction; accordingly, the appeal was dismissed. Argued January 19—officially released April 13, 2021
