“arbitrary, illegal or not reasonably supported by the evidence.”
7 later decisions quote this exact passage“Should substantial evidence exist in the record to support any basis or stated reason for the agency's decision, the court must sustain the decision.”
5 later decisions quote this exact passage“`Th[e] . . . substantial evidence rule is similar to the sufficiency of the evidence standard applied in judicial review of jury verdicts, and evidence is sufficient to sustain an agency finding if it affords a substantial basis of fact from which the fact in issue can be reasonably inferred. . . . [I]t imposes an important limitation on the power of the courts to overturn a decision of an administrative agency . . . and to provide a more restrictive standard of review than standards embodying review of weight of the evidence or clearly erroneous action. [S]ubstantial evidence in the directed verdict formulation . . . is something less than the weight of the evidence, and the possibility of drawing two inconsistent conclusions from the evidence does not prevent an administrative agency's finding from being supported by substantial evidence. . . .' (Citations omitted; internal quotation marks omitted.) Newtown v. Keeney , supra, 234 Conn. 319 -20.”
