Alter c. Celotto, 95 Conn. App. 902,895 A.2d 872 (2006) (per curium)

In Alter c. Celotto, 95 Conn. App. 902,895 A.2d 872 (2006) (per curium) the Appellate Court affirmed the holding of the trial court, without written opinion, dismissing the plaintiff's claims for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.  The plaintiff lacked standing to pursue his action because the claim existed at the time he filed for bankruptcy.  Under federal bankruptcy law, the claim was not vested with the plaintiff, but with the trustee who had not been previously notified of the claim and who was never a party to the case.
