Connecticut Auto Insurance & Crash Law Case Authority Library
This issue-organized authority index collects primary Connecticut statutes and leading appellate decisions for automobile coverage and crash-law research.
Core Connecticut Statutes
- Conn. Gen. Stat. §§38a-334 through 38a-336a — minimum automobile coverage, policy-limit disclosure, UM/UIM and conversion coverage.
- Conn. Gen. Stat. §38a-335a — pre-suit automobile liability policy-limit disclosure.
- Conn. Gen. Stat. §38a-336 — uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage.
- Conn. Gen. Stat. §38a-336a — underinsured motorist conversion coverage.
- Conn. Gen. Stat. §52-572h — comparative negligence and apportionment.
Leading Connecticut Decisions
- Collins v. Colonial Penn Insurance Co. (Conn. 2001) — conversion coverage and the relationship between UM/UIM contract rights and tort damages.
- Hotkowski v. Aetna Life & Casualty Co. (Conn. 1992) — underinsured-motorist coverage and contractual time limitations.
Connecticut UM/UIM analysis should be paired with current regulations, declarations, conversion-coverage elections, later appellate authority and claim-specific settlement/subrogation requirements.
