1 Conn. App. 368 | Conn. App. Ct. | 1984
The plaintiffs appeal1 from the granting of the defendant's motion to dissolve a prejudgment real estate attachment by substitution of a lien on other real estate. The plaintiffs claim that the trial court erred (1) in finding that the defendant had standing to maintain THE motion and (2) in substituting a lien on real estate, the net equity value of which exceeded the amount of the ex parte attachment, without considering the value of the property originally attached.
The defendant moved to dissolve the real estate attachment and to substitute a lien on other property in accordance with General Statutes
The trial court held that the defendant had standing to move to dissolve one lien and substitute another *370
because of his personal stake in the outcome of the litigation. Standing is that doctrine which affords a party the right to request an adjudication of issues which affect him and his rights in particular. See Shaskan v. Waltham Industries Corporation,
The statute requires that the property to be substituted have "an equal or greater net equity value than the amount secured" by the original attachment. The plaintiffs argue that the quoted words should read as though they were "an equal or greater value than the property originally attached." The language of the statute is clear, precise and unambiguous. There is no necessity for any judicial construction of the statute. Doe v. Manson,
There is no error.
