• 204 Conn. App. 571

Syllabus

The defendant appealed to this court from the judgment of the trial court finding him in violation of his conditional discharge and revoking his conditional discharge. He claimed that the particular condition of his conditional discharge that prohibited him from soliciting on private property violated his rights to free speech, due process, and liberty guaranteed by the first, fifth, and fourteenth amendments to the United States constitution. Held that the defendant's appeal was dismissed as moot, the defendant having failed to challenge all the bases for the trial court's finding that he violated his conditional discharge; the court also found that the defendant violated a second condition of his conditional discharge, the condition that he stay away from the Connecticut Post Mall in Milford, and, as the defendant failed to challenge this independent basis for the court's finding that he violated his conditional discharge, this court could not afford him any practical relief. Argued January 14—officially released May 11, 2021
