Jeri L. Billington v. Randall J. Billington
    
      Gerald L. Garlick, in support of the petition.
    
      Randall J. Billington, pro se, in opposition.
    Decided November 2, 1990
   The plaintiff’s petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 23 Conn. App. 45, is granted, limited to the following issues:

“1. To prevail on a motion to open a judgment based on fraud, must the movant in a marital case establish diligence in attempting to discover the fraud?
“2. Is there a difference in marital cases between a fraud on the court and a fraud on the adverse party?
“3. Was the Appellate Court correct in deciding that the trial court should not have opened the judgment?”
