10 Conn. Supp. 282

Williams v. Cox

Connecticut Superior Court

Decided February 3, 1942

Connecticut Superior Court · decided 1942-02-03

Decided 1942-02-03

WYNNE, J.

¶1The court is of the opinion that notice is *283a prerequisite to suit even in a case where a highway hazard is a nuisance unless suit is brought within the time prescribed for notice.

¶2The weak link in plaintiff’s reasoning is that while it has been held that a town is liable for nuisance, it has not been held that the cause of action exists except by virtue of the statute relating to defective highways.

¶3For the reasons set forth therein, the demurrer is sustained.
