Opinion
Decided April 19, 2002
The petition for certification by the commissioner of children and families for appeal from the Appellate Court, 68 Conn. App. 427 (AC 20866), is granted, limited to the following issues:
"Did the Appellate Court properly conclude that: (1) the appeal was not moot because it met the test of `capable of repetition, yet evading review'; (2) under General Statutes 17a-12 (a), the court must determine that the requested transfer is in the juvenile's best interest; and (3) the court was required to determine the juvenile's competency before transferring him from Long Lane School to John R. Manson Youth Institution?"
The Supreme Court docket number is SC 16732.
Susan Quinn Cobb, assistant attorney general, in support of the petition.
Sandra A. Trionfini, in opposition.
