The plaintiff's petition for certification to appeal from the Appellate Court, 206 Conn. App. 412, ––– A.3d –––– (2021), is granted, limited to the following issues:
"1. Did the Appellate Court correctly conclude that the public policy contained in General Statutes § 31-73 (b) is inapplicable to the facts of this case and, as a matter of law, cannot form the basis for a common-law wrongful termination action?
"2. Did the Appellate Court correctly conclude, in the alternative, that the evidence presented at the summary judgment stage failed to support the plaintiff's claim that the defendant actually violated the public policy contained in § 31-73 (b) ?"
KELLER, J., did not participate in the consideration of or decision on this petition.
