******************************************************RICKY A. MORNEAU v. STATE OF

CONNECTICUT ET AL. (AC 35423)
DiPentima, C. J., and Sheldon and Flynn, Js. Argued October 22, 2013—officially released May 20, 2014 (Appeal from Superior Court, judicial district of

Middlesex, Domnarski, J.) Ricky A. Morneau, self-represented, the appellant (plaintiff).
Michael K. Skold, assistant attorney general, with whom, on the brief, was George Jepsen, attorney general, for the appellees (named defendant et al.).Opinion DiPENTIMA, C. J. The plaintiff, Ricky A. Morneau, appeals following the granting of a motion to dismiss filed by the defendants1 in the case. The self-represented2 plaintiffraised avariety ofissues and subissues in his appellate brief, contendingthatthe court improperly granted the motion to dismiss. The defendants counter that (1) certain causes of action set forth in the plaintiff’s complaint never were presented to the GeneralAssemblyandthereforewerenotencompassed in the waiver of sovereign immunity authorized by the General Assembly, (2) all but one of the remaining
causes ofaction were untimely and were public emoluments inviolation ofarticle first, § 1, ofthe Connecticut constitution, (3) the sole remaining cause of action against two prosecutors properly was dismissed because ofabsolutejudicialimmunity, and (4) theplaintiff lacked standing to seek injunctive relief. We agree withthe defendants, and, therefore, affirmthejudgment of the trial court.
The following facts andproceduralhistoryare necessary for our resolution of this appeal.3 In May, 2007, the plaintiff commenced a three count lawsuit in the United States District Courtforthe District ofConnecticut. Inthatfederal action, the plaintiffallegedthat state Marshals Louis C. Aresco and Louis Corneroli had refused to serve process for him. The plaintiff also claimed that he had sent a letter complaining about the two marshals to then Attorney General Richard Blumenthalandthattheletterthereafterwasforwarded to the State Marshal Commission.4 After conducting an investigation, the State Marshal Commission dismissed the plaintiff’s complaint. See Morneau v. State, United StatesDistrict Court, DocketNo. 3:07-cv-00-819-JBA(D. Conn. July 7, 2008). The plaintiff further alleged that the state, Aresco, Corneroli, Blumenthal, and the State Marshal Commission violated his rights to due process and equal protection, and conspired to violate those rights. The District Court dismissed all ofthe plaintiff’s claims, rendered judgment in favor of the defendants and declinedto exercise supplementaljurisdiction over any state law claims. Id.
On August 24, 2009, the plaintiff commenced an action in the Superior Court premised on allegations that state Marshal Albenie Gagnon had overbilled the plaintiff for services and made false statements, the State Marshal Commission had denied his request for certain documents, made pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, General Statutes § 1-200 et seq., and the state had violated motion deadlines. The plaintiff subsequently added state Marshal Timothy J. Bennett
as adefendant. The state successfullymovedto dismiss the action onthebasis ofsovereignimmunity; however, the action against the two marshals remained.5 The court concluded that the plaintiff had failed to obtainpermission to sue the state from the Claims Commissioner and thus the plaintiff’s claims were barred by sovereign immunity. The August 24, 2009 action is not the subject of this appeal.
On September 8, 2009, the plaintifffiled a claim6 with the Claims Commissioner, requestingpermissionto sue the state. In his claim, the plaintiff alleged: (1) overbilling by state marshals in violation of General Statutes § 52-70;7 (2) mail fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1341 et seq.; (3) violation of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), 18 U.S.C. § 1961 et seq.; and (4) violations ofdueprocess and equalprotection by various state actors.8
The state filed a motion to dismiss, arguing, inter alia, that the Claims Commission lacked subject matter jurisdictionbecausethe claimpresentedbytheplaintiff
was untimely. On May 3, 2010, the plaintiff filed an objectiontothemotiontodismiss, andincludeda‘‘chronology of events’’ in support of his opposition. The Claims Commissioner issued a memorandum of decision on May 21, 2010. He noted that the plaintiffalleged that he had been overbilled by state marshals on two separate occasions and that these improper actions occurred in or about August, 2007. Relying on General Statutes § 4-148 (a),9 the Claims Commissioner determinedthattheplaintiff’s claimwas untimely, andthereforehelackedsubjectmatterjurisdictionanddismissed the entire claim. See General Statutes § 4-158 (a) (1).
In accordance with § 4-158 (b), the plaintiff asked the General Assembly to review the decision of the Claims Commissioner dismissing the claim. On June 8, 2011, the General Assembly issued a Substitute Joint Resolution No. 34 (resolution) vacating the decision of the Claims Commissioner and authorizing the plaintiff ‘‘to institute and prosecute to finaljudgment an action against the state to recover damages as compensation for injury to person or damage to property, or both, allegedly suffered by the [plaintiff] as set forth in said claim. Such action shall be brought not later than one year from the date ofthe final adoption by the General Assembly of this resolution.’’
Theplaintiffthencommencedthepresentactionwith
a six count complaint, alleging: (1) violations of 42 U.S.C. § 198310 by the defendants; (2) conduct by the Office ofthe Attorney General, the Office ofthe State’s Attorney, the State Marshal Commission, Gagnon and Bennett that constituted negligent infliction of emotional distress; (3) thatthe conduct ofGagnon and Bennett violated the federal RICO statute and the state Corrupt Organizations and Racketeering Activity Act (CORA), General Statutes § 53-395; (4) thatthe conduct ofGagnon and Bennettviolated the Connecticut Unfair Trade Practices Act (CUTPA), General Statutes § 42- 110a et seq.; (5) that the conduct ofthe attorney general’s office, the state’s attorney’s office and the StateMarshal Commission constitutedvexatious litigation in violation of General Statutes § 52-568; and (6) that the plaintiff was entitled to injunctive relief against the State Marshal Commission. The plaintiff sought monetary damages in counts one through five, and injunctive relief in count six.
Pursuant to Practice Book §§ 10-3011 and 10-31, the defendants moved to dismiss the entire complaint filed bythe plaintiff. Specifically, the defendants argued that the courtlackedsubjectmatterjurisdiction onthebasis of sovereign immunity, absolute immunity and the plaintiff’s lack of standing.12 After hearing argument, the court issued a memorandum of decision granting the defendants’ motion and dismissed the plaintiff’s complaint. Theplaintifffiledamotionto reargue, which the court denied. This appeal followed.
Before addressing the specifics of the plaintiff’s claims on appeal, we set forth the legal principles regarding a motion to dismiss. ‘‘The standard ofreview for a court’s decision on a motion to dismiss is well settled. A motion to dismiss tests, inter alia, whether,
on the face ofthe record, the court is withoutjurisdiction.

. . . [O]ur review ofthe court’s ultimate legal conclusion and resulting [determination] of the motion to dismiss will be de novo.

. . . When a

. . . court decides a jurisdictional question raised by a pretrial motion to dismiss, it must consider the allegations of the complaint in their most favorable light.

. . . In this regard, acourtmusttakethe factsto bethose allegedin the complaint, includingthose facts necessarilyimplied from the allegations, construing them in amannermost favorable to the pleader.

. . . The motion to dismiss

. . . admits all facts which are well pleaded, invokes the existing record and must be decided upon that alone.’’ (Internal quotation marks omitted.) Gold v. Rowland, 296 Conn. 186, 200–201, 994 A.2d 106 (2010); Bagg v. Thompson, 114 Conn. App. 30, 37–38, 968 A.2d 468 (2009).
I
The plaintiff first claims that the court improperly determined the scope ofthe legislative waiver ofsovereign immunity. The defendants counter that the trial courtproperlyconcludedthattheresolutionofthe General Assembly waived sovereign immunity only for the
causes ofactionsthathadbeenraisedbeforethe Claims Commissioner and that any other actions are barred by sovereign immunity. Specifically, the defendants maintain that the court properly dismissed (1) aspects of count one regardingthe actions and omissions ofAttorney General GeorgeJepsen, AssistantAttorney General Philip Miller and the State Marshal Commission,13 (2) count two, negligent infliction of emotional distress, (3) count four, CUTPA violations, and (4) count five, vexatious litigation. We conclude that the trial court properly granted the motion to dismiss with respect tothese causes of action.
As an initial matter, we set forth the relevant legal principles regarding sovereign immunity.14 ‘‘Sovereign immunityrelatesto acourt’s subjectmatterjurisdiction
over a case, and therefore presents a question of law
over which we exercise de novo review.

. . . In so doing, we must decide whether [the trial court’s] conclusions are legally and logically correct and find support in the facts that appear in the record.

. . . The principle that the state cannot be sued without its consent, or sovereign immunity, is well established under
our case law.

. . . It has deep roots in this state and
our legal system in general, finding its origin in ancient
common law.

. . . Not only have we recognized the state’s immunity as an entity, but [w]e have also recognized that because the state can act only through its officers and agents, a suit against a state officer concerning a matter in which the officer represents the state is, in effect, against the state.

. . . Exceptions to this doctrine are few andnarrowly construedunder our jurisprudence.

. . . ‘‘[T]he sovereign immunity enjoyed by the state is notabsolute. There are [three] exceptions: (1) whenthe legislature, either expressly or by force of a necessary implication, statutorily waives the state’s sovereign immunity

. . . (2) when an action seeks declaratory
or injunctive relief on the basis of a substantial claim that the state or one of its officers has violated the plaintiff’s constitutional rights

. . . and (3) when an actionseeks declaratoryorinjunctivereliefonthebasis of a substantial allegation of wrongful conduct to promote an illegal purpose in excess ofthe officer’s statutory authority.

. . . For a claim made pursuant to the first exception, this courthas recognizedthewell established principle that statutes in derogation ofsovereign immunity should be strictly construed.

. . . Where there is any doubt about their meaning or intent they
are given the effect which makes the least rather than the most change in sovereign immunity.

. . . In the absence of a proper factual basis in the complaint to support the applicability ofthese exceptions, the granting of a motion to dismiss on sovereign immunity grounds is proper.’’ (Internal quotation marks omitted.) Paragon Construction Co

. v. Dept. ofPublic Works, 294 Conn. 695, 706, 987 A.2d 348 (2010).
A brief discussion of the procedure that a claimant must follow to obtain permission to sue the state for monetary damages will facilitate our analysis. Our Supreme Courtexpresslyhasstatedthataplaintiffseekingmonetarydamagesagainstthestatemustfirstobtain authorization from the Claims Commissioner. Millerv.Egan, 265 Conn. 301, 317, 828 A.2d 549 (2003). The Claims Commission is required by statute to make a record of each claim. General Statutes § 4-153. The Claims Commissioner may deny or dismiss the claim, order immediate payment of a claim not exceeding $20,000, recommend to the General Assembly payment ofa claim exceeding $20,000 or grantpermission to sue the state.15 See General Statutes §§ 4-158 (a) and 4- 160 (a). A claimant may seek review by the General Assembly in certain cases where the Claims Commissioner has denied or dismissed the claim requesting permission to sue the state. General Statutes § 4-158 (b) (1). If such request for review is made, the Claims Commissioner must submit the claim, a copy of the Claims Commissioner’s findings and a hearing record oftheclaimtotheGeneralAssemblyforreview. General Statutes § 4-159 (a) (2). The GeneralAssemblywillthen either confirm the decision of the Claims Commissioner; see General Statutes § 4-159 (b) (1) (A); or vacate the decision, order payment of the claim in a specified amount or authorize the claimant to sue the state. See General Statutes § 4-159 (b) (1) (B).
Pursuant to General Statutes § 4-147,16 the plaintiff filed notice ofhis claim with the Claims Commissioner
on September 8, 2009. The plaintiffalso sentthe Claims Commissioner a copy of a letter that he had written to Blumenthal, regarding the plaintiff’s intention to seek legal recourse against the state on the following bases: (1) overbilling by state marshals, (2) mail fraudby state marshals in violation of federal law, (3) violation of RICO, (4) violation ofConnecticut and federal due process and equal protection rights and, (5) conspiracy. As a remedy, the plaintiff sought monetary damages in
excess of $15,000, interest and costs, equitable relief and permission to sue the state. The Claims Commission granted the defendants’ motion and dismissed the plaintiff’s claim. The plaintiff successfully obtained a legislative reversal of the decision of the Claims Commissioner. Thejointresolution ofthe GeneralAssembly provided: ‘‘That the decision of the Claims Commissioner

. . . ordering the dismissal of the claim against the state in excess of seven thousand five hundred dollars of [the plaintiff], is vacated and the claimant is authorized to institute and prosecute to finaljudgment
an action against the state to recover damages as compensation for injury to person and damage to property,
or both, allegedly suffered by the claimant as setforth in said claim

. Such action shall be brought not later than one year from the date of the final adoption by the General Assembly of this resolution.’’ (Emphasis added.)
The plaintiffthen commenced this action, and in his operative complaint set forth the following causes of action: (1) violations of42 U.S.C. § 1983byvarious state actors, (2) negligent infliction of emotional distress by various state actors, (3) RICO and CORA violations bystate marshals, (4) CUTPA violations by Bennett and Gagnon, (5) vexatious litigation against the attorney general’s office and the State Marshal Commission for raising groundless orvexatious defenses invariousproceedings, and (6) injunctive relief.
The trial court concluded that the resolution of the General Assembly authorizing the plaintiff to bring his lawsuit against the state was a waiver of sovereign immunity and therefore was to be construed narrowly. It then determined that there was nothing in the plaintiff’s initial claim to the Claims Commissioner that wouldsupportthe distinctlegal elementsforthe causes of action of negligent infliction of emotional distress, violations of CUTPA and vexatious litigation, as well
as the specific § 1983 claims against the attorneys general and the State Marshal Commission. We agree with the analysis of the trial court.
The doctrine ofsovereignimmunityprovides astrong presumptionthatthe state is immune from suit orliability. Hicks v. State, 297 Conn. 798, 801, 1 A.3d 39 (2010). Although the legislature is statutorily authorized to waive sovereign immunity by vacating a denial of permission to sue from the Claims Commissioner, that did not occur in the present case with respect to the § 1983 claims againstthe attorneysgeneral17andthe State Marshal Commission for failing to comply with a formal written opinion by the Office of the Attorney General, the negligent infliction of emotional distress, CUTPA and vexatious litigation claims found in portions of count one, and all of counts two, four and five of the plaintiff’s complaint.
The language ofthejointresolution expresslywaived sovereign immunity only for the claim presented to the Claims Commissioner. The causes of action in the subsequentcomplaintdiscussedinthispartofouropinion were not included in the proceedings before the Claims Commission and never were addressed or considered by the General Assembly. Instead, the plaintiff first raised these particular legal theories in this complaint. Moreover, ourreview ofthe materials before the Claims Commission, and then the General Assembly, reveals no allegation that would support the elements of these distinct causes of action. For example, the elements for negligent infliction of emotional distress
are: ‘‘(1) the defendant’s conduct created an unreasonable risk of causing the plaintiff emotional distress; (2) the plaintiff’s distress was foreseeable; (3) the emotional distress was severe enough that it might result in illness or bodily harm; and (4) the defendant’s conduct was the cause of the plaintiff’s distress.’’ Carrol

v. Allstate Ins. Co., 262 Conn. 433, 444, 815 A.2d 119 (2003).18 The materials submitted by the plaintiffto the Claims Commissioner contain nothing to indicate that these elements were presented to the General Assembly. We note that § 4-147 provides in relevant part thatthe notice to the Claims Commissioner ‘‘shall be for informational purposes only and shall not be subject to any formal ortechnical requirements, except as may be necessaryforclarity ofpresentation andfacility of understanding.’’ (Emphasis added.) While the plaintiff
was not required to set forth a formal declaration of theparticularcausesofactionhesoughttobringagainst the state, he needed to include information that would clarify the nature ofthe waiver sought and ensure that the Claims Commissioner, and subsequently the GeneralAssemblywhich, reviewed the action ofthe Claims Commissioner, would have an understanding of the nature of that waiver. See, e.g., Burgess v. State, 50 Conn. Supp. 271, 281–82, 920 A.2d 383 (2007) (where claimant raised allegations of wilful and malicious behavior and negligence, but failed to include any mention ofnuisancebefore Claims Commissioner, and General Assembly did not mention that cause of action in its resolution, there was no basis to conclude General Assembly had waived sovereign immunity for that particular cause of action, and court described nuisance allegations as afterthoughts of counsel and subject to granting of motion to dismiss). Moreover, aswenotedpreviously, ourlawrecognizes that statutes in derogation of sovereign immunity are strictly construed. See, e.g., DaimlerChrysler Corp

. v. Law, 284 Conn. 701, 711, 937 A.2d 675 (2007). Where there is any doubt about its meaning or intent, we should give itthe effectthat makes the leastratherthan the most change in sovereign immunity. Id., 712. We notethattherationale ofSargesv. State, 26 Conn. Supp. 24, 209 A.2d 886 (1965), bolsters ouranalysis. InSarges, the plaintiff obtained permission to sue the state for $20,000 in damages. Id., 25. In his lawsuit, however, the plaintiff sought to recover $75,000. The state successfullyprosecuted apleain abatement on the ground that the suit for damages was in excess of those for which permissionto suewasgranted. Id. Relying ontheprinciple ofstrict construction ofstatutes that allow lawsuits againstthe state, the courtreasonedthat ‘‘[n]othing can be taken by implication against the state.’’ Id., 27. It further noted that the permission to sue the state was relatedto the $20,000 requested andthat ‘‘[s]uch authorizationwasno carte blancheauthority to theplaintiff to sueforanyamountthathemight choose.’’ (Emphasis added.) Id., 28; see also 184 WindsorAve., LLCv. State, Superior Court,judicial district ofHartford, Docket No. CV-03-4018076 (May 16, 2008) (concluding that claim for damages could not exceed amount sought in notice of claim to Claims Commissioner); Calvert v. State, Superior Court, judicial district ofNew London at Norwich, Docket No. 105317 (March 10, 1995) (14 Conn. L. Rptr. 110) (same); cf. Merly v. State, 211 Conn. 199, 211, 558 A.2d 977 (1989) (General Assembly rejected Claims Commissioner’s recommendationthatno award should be made on plaintiff’s claim, but that did notimply legislative grant of authority to sue state).
We agree with the trial courtthatthe GeneralAssembly never waived sovereign immunity with respect to these causes of action. Absent such a waiver, the general presumption applies, and the defendants are entitledto sovereignimmunity. See, e.g., ChiefInformation Officer v. Computers Plus Center, Inc., 310 Conn. 60, 91, 74 A.3d 1242 (2013); Lagassey v. State, 268 Conn. 723, 732, 846 A.2d 831 (2004). We conclude, therefore, that the court properly granted the motion to dismiss with respect to the part of count one regarding the § 1983 allegations against the attorneys general and the State Marshal Commission for refusing to comply with
aformalwritten opinionfromthe Office oftheAttorney General, the count alleging negligent infliction of emotional distress (count two), the count alleging CUTPA violations (countfour), andthe countallegingvexatious litigation (count five).
II
The plaintiff next claims that the court improperly concluded that the resolution ofthe General Assembly
was anunconstitutionalpublic emolumentwithrespect tohisremaining § 1983allegationsagainstGagnon, Bennett and the State Marshal Commission19 in count one and the count alleging federal RICO and state CORA violations (count three). The defendants counter20 that the resolution did not contain a statement of public purpose and benefited only the plaintiff, and therefore the court properly determined that it violated the Connecticut constitution. We agree with the defendants.
Section 4-148 (a) sets forth the time frame in which
a claimant must present a claim to the Claims Commissioner. Specifically, that subsection provides that ‘‘no claim shall be presented

. . . but within one year after it accrues. Claims for injury to person or damage to property shall be deemed to accrue on the date when the damage or injury is sustained or discovered or in the exercise of reasonable care should have been discovered, provided no claim shall be presented more than three years from the date ofthe act or event complaint of.’’ General Statutes § 4-148 (a).
Subsection (b) of§ 4-148provides alegislative exception to the time frame for obtaining a waiver of sovereign immunity. ‘‘The General Assembly may, by special act, authorize aperson to present a claim to the Claims Commissioner after the time limitations set forth in subsection (a) of this section have expired if it deems such authorization to be just and equitable and makes
an express finding that such authorization is supported bycompelling equitable circumstancesandwouldserve
a public purpose.

. . .’’ General Statutes § 4-148 (b). In the present case, the trial court determined that the plaintiff’s § 1983 claims, other than those against the attorneys general and the State Marshal Commission,and his claims that Bennett and Gagnon violated the RICO and CORAstatuteswereuntimelypursuantto § 4- 148 (a). The courtfurtherdeterminedthattheresolution purporting to waive the untimely portion of his claim constituted an unconstitutional public emolument. The plaintiff challenges both of these determinations, and therefore our inquiry is twofold: Whether the court properly decided that these causes of action were untimely and, if so, whether it properly concluded that the resolution did not serve apublic purpose and therefore was unconstitutional. We conclude that the court properlygrantedthe defendants’ motionto dismisswith respect to these counts of the plaintiff’s complaint.
A
The first question for this court is whether the trial court properly concluded that the balance ofthe plaintiff’s § 1983 allegations against the State Marshal Commission and his allegations that Bennett and Gagnon violatedthe federal RICO and state CORAstatuteswere untimely. As noted previously, § 4-148 (a) sets forth the time frame in which claims must be brought to the Claims Commissioner. In the present case, the plaintiff sent notice to the Claims Commissioner on September 8, 2009. The court concluded that the plaintiff had knowledge of actionable harms prior to September 8, 2008, and therefore that his claim was made outside of the applicable statute of limitations. We agree. A discussion ofLagassey v. State, supra, 268 Conn. 723, willfacilitate ouranalysis. Inthatcase, theplaintiff, the executrix of an estate, sought to recover damages against state employees for medical malpractice. Id., 725. The Claims Commissioner denied the claim as untimely, and the General Assembly subsequently authorized her claim via a special act. Id., 725–26. The state defendants again sought to dismiss the claim, this time on the ground that the special act was unconstitutional as an exclusive public emolument in violation of article first, § 1, ofthe constitution of Connecticut. Id., 726. In her appeal, the plaintiff argued that the claim
was notuntimelybecause the one yearstatute oflimitations set forth in § 4-148 (a) did not accrue until she discoveredthe injuryinthe exercise ofreasonable care. Id., 731.
In its analysis, our Supreme Court considered General Statutes § 52-58421 when it interpreted § 4-148 (a). ‘‘Both statutes provide that the limitation period begins to run when a plaintiff either sustains or discovers the injury or, in the exercise of reasonable care, should have discovered the injury, and both statutes contain
a three year period ofrepose.’’ Id., 738. It then set forth the legal standard for determining when the limitation period commences for actions in negligence: ‘‘The limitation period for actions in negligence begins to run on the date when the injury is first discovered or in the exercise of reasonable care should have been discov-ered. See General Statutes §§ 4-148 (a) and 52-584. In this regard, the term injury is synonymous with legal injury or actionable harm. Actionable harm occurs when the plaintiff discovers, or in the exercise of reasonable care, should have discovered the essential elements of a cause of action.

. . . A breach of duty by the defendant and a causal connection between the defendant’s breach of duty and the resulting harm to the plaintiff are essential elements of a cause of action in negligence; they are therefore necessary ingredients for actionable harm.

. . . Furthermore, actionable harm may occur when the plaintiff has knowledge of facts that would put a reasonable person on notice of the nature and extent of an injury, and that the injury
was caused by the negligent conduct of another.

. . . In this regard, the harm complained of need not have reached its fullest manifestation in order for the limitation period to begin to run; a party need only have suffered some form of actionable harm.’’ (Citations omitted; internal quotation marks omitted.) Lagassey

v. State, supra, 268 Conn. 748–49.
In the present case, the plaintiff alleged in his complaint that Gagnon received his fees between August 24, 2007, and September 14, 2007. The trial court also examined the ‘‘chronology ofevents’’ submitted as part ofthe plaintiff’s objection to the defendants’ motion to dismiss that he filed with the Claims Commissioner. In that chronology, the plaintiff stated that in May, 2008, afterexaminingthefinances ofstatemarshals, he determined that Gagnon never had claimed the $1329.20 in fees that he had billed the plaintiff. The plaintiff also noted that in May, 2008, after conducting his examination, hewas awarethatsome statemarshals ‘‘hadgenerated additional income by illegal billing, or by claiming theyperformedservices whichwouldhavebeenimpossible considering the size of income claimed.’’
The trial court concludedthat inMay, 2008, the plaintiff discovered the injury and suffered actionable harm because he had knowledge of the specific facts that puthimonnotice ofthenature oftheinjurywithrespect to Gagnon, and Bennett as well. We agree with this conclusion. Thus, the claim stemming from the alleged overbillings by Gagnon and Bennett, which was filed
on September 8, 2009, was untimely. The same analysis applies to the plaintiff’s remaining claims against the State Marshal Commission. The chronology submitted by the plaintiff, in conjunction with the files from the various underlying legal proceedings, established his knowledge of the events underlying the claim that the State Marshal Commission had violated his constitutional rights by dismissing his complaints against Marshals Aresco and Corneroli and denying his Freedom ofInformationAct request. These materials established that the claim was not filed until after the one year period of limitation had run.On appeal, the plaintiffargues that, pursuant to General Statutes § 52-59522 and the doctrine of contra non valentem,23 the statute of limitation should not have begun to run. These specific arguments, however, do not appear to have been raised before the trial court and were not addressed in the court’s memorandum of decision.24 We decline to consider them for the first time on appeal. ‘‘Only in [the] most exceptional circumstances canandwill [appellate courts] consideraclaim, constitutionalorotherwise, thathasnotbeenraisedand decided in the trial court.’’ (Internal quotation marks omitted.) New Haven v. Bonner, 272 Conn. 489, 498, 863 A.2d 680 (2005). We conclude, therefore, that the court properly concluded that the claims against the marshals and the State Marshal Commission were untimely.
B
Wenowturntothequestionofwhethertheresolution passed by the General Assembly granting the plaintiff permission to bring suit against the marshals and the State Marshal Commission constituted an exclusive public emolument inviolation ofarticle first, § 1, ofthe Connecticutconstitution.25We agreewiththetrial court that the resolution did not serve a public purpose and, therefore, that the resolution was passed in violation of the Connecticut constitution’s prohibition against public emoluments.26
‘‘Toprevailunderarticle first, § 1, ofourconstitution, the state must demonstrate that the sole objective of the GeneralAssemblyistograntpersonalgainoradvantage to an individual.

. . . If, however, an enactment
serves a legitimate public purpose, then it will withstand a challenge under article first, § 1.

. . . ‘‘The scope ofourreview asto whetheran enactment
serves a public purpose is limited. [W]hat constitutes
a public purpose is primarily a question for the legislature, and its determination should not be reversed by the court unless it is manifestly and palpably incorrect.

. . . In determining whether a special act serves a public purpose, a court must uphold it unless there is no reasonable ground upon which it can be sustained.

. . . Thus, if there be the least possibility that [the special act] will be promotive in any degree ofthe public welfare

. . . we are bound to uphold it against a constitutional challenge predicated on article first, § 1 [of the state constitution].

. . . ‘‘In this regard, although a special act passed under § 4-148 (b)willundoubtedlyconferadirectbenefitupon
a particular claimant, we have found a public purpose if it remedies an injustice done to that individual for which the state itselfbears responsibility

. . . . In such circumstances, the benefit conferred upon a private party by the legislature may be viewed as incidental to the overarchingpublic interestthatis servedinremedy-ing an injustice caused by the state.

. . . ‘‘By contrast, we have consistently held that legislation seeking to remedy a procedural default for which the state is not responsible does not serve a public purpose and, accordingly, runs afoul ofarticle first, § 1, of the state constitution.

. . . Similarly, where a special act has allowed a person named therein to bring a suit based upon a statutory cause of action that would otherwise be barred for failure to comply with a time limit specified in the statute, we have ordinarily been unable to discern any public purpose sufficient to sustain the enactment.’’ (Citation omitted; emphasis altered; internalquotationmarks omitted.)Kellyv. University of Connecticut Health Center, 290 Conn. 245, 257–59, 963 A.2d 1 (2009); Chotkowski v. State, 240 Conn. 246, 259–60, 690 A.2d 368 (1997); Merly v. State, supra, 211 Conn. 212–13.
Section 32 of the resolution authorizes the plaintiff, and only the plaintiff, to commence a lawsuit against the state forhis alleged injuries, as detailed inthe claim presented to the Claims Commissioner. Notably absent in this case was a declaration that it served a public purpose, nor can we discern one. It merely provided the plaintiff with an exclusive and private benefit. ‘‘No enactment creating a preference can withstand constitutional attack if the sole objective of the General Assembly is to grant personal gain or advantage to an individual.’’ (Internal quotation marks omitted.) Kelly

v. University ofConnecticutHealth Center, supra, 290 Conn. 260. Althoughwe aremindfuloftheheavyburden assumed by those who challenge the constitutionality oflegislative actions; see id., 257; we conclude that the court properly determined that the resolution in the present case violated the state constitution’s prohibition against public emoluments, and correctly dismissed the § 1983 claim against the State Marshal Commission contained in count one of the plaintiff’s complaint andthe claim alleging RICO and CORAviolations by Bennett and Gagnon set forth in count three.
III
We now address the plaintiff’s § 1983 allegations against ChiefState’sAttorney Kevin T. Kane and State’s Attorney ScottJ. Murphyforviolatinghis constitutional rights by failing to prosecute the state marshals for larceny, illegal billing and making false statements, as set forth in count one ofthe complaint. The court concludedthataprosecutor’s decisionnotto initiateprosecution is cloaked with absolute immunity.27 On appeal, the plaintiff appears to argue that his claim against the two prosecutors was timely pursuant to the continuing
course of conduct doctrine. We agree with the trial court that this claim fails as a result of absolute immunityaffordedtoprosecutorswithrespecttothe decision to not initiate prosecution.In Imbler v. Pachtman, 424 U.S. 409, 96 S. Ct. 984, 47 L. Ed. 2d 128 (1976), the United States Supreme Court held that a state prosecutor acting within the scope ofhis duties in initiating and pursuing a criminal prosecution is entitled to absolute immunity and is not amenable to suit under § 1983. Id., 410. The court reasoned that § 1983 should be read in harmony with existing tort principles and defenses, rather than in derogation ofthem, and that the well settled commonlaw immunity of a prosecutor also applies to § 1983 claims. Id., 418–24; see also Briscoe v. LaHue, 460 U.S. 325, 334, 103 S. Ct. 1108, 75 L. Ed. 2d 96 (1983).
The Supreme Court has made it clear that not all actions of a prosecutor are entitled to such immunity, but only those that are ‘‘intimately associated with the judicial phase ofthe criminal process

. . . .’’ Imbler v. Pachtman, supra, 424 U.S. 430; see also Mangiafico v. Blumenthal, 471 F.3d 391, 396 (2d Cir. 2006) (governmentattorneyentitledto absolute immunitywhenfunctioning as advocate for state in way that is intimately associatedwithjudicialprocess);Doryv.Ryan, 25 F.3d 81, 83 (2d Cir. 1994) (same). ‘‘Aprosecutor’s administrative duties and those investigatory functions that do notrelate to an advocate’spreparation forthe initiation of a prosecution or for judicial proceedings are not entitled to absolute immunity.’’ Buckley v. Fitzsimmons, 509 U.S. 259, 273, 113 S. Ct. 2606, 125 L. Ed. 2d 209 (1993). When a prosecutor provides legal advice to the police; Burns v. Reed, 500 U.S. 478, 486, 111 S. Ct. 1934, 114L. Ed. 2d547(1991);performstheinvestigative role normally done by a member ofthe police; Buckley

v. Fitzsimmons, supra, 273; or makes comments to the media; id., 277–78; he or she is not entitled to absolute immunity. See also Haynesworth v. Miller, 820 F.2d 1245, 1268 (D.C. Cir. 1987) (‘‘[t]he courts have drawn rough boundaries around the class ofabsolutely-immunized prosecutorial activities, and have treated functions such as filing charges, plea-bargaining, presenting evidence, and negotiating parole as falling within the protected sphere, and those such as executing search warrants, interrogating suspects, disseminating information to the press, and storing evidence as meriting only qualified immunity’’ [footnotes omitted]), overruled in part on other grounds by Hartman v. Moore, 547 U.S. 250, 126 S. Ct. 1695, 164 L. Ed. 2d 441 (2006).
In describing the role ofaprosecutor in Connecticut,
our Supreme Court has stated: ‘‘The functions of a state’s attorney are not purely those of an executive officer. As a representative of the people of the state, he is under a duty not solely to obtain convictions but, more importantly, (1) to determine that there is reasonable ground to proceed with a criminal charge

. . . (2) to see that impartialjustice is done the guilty as well as the innocent; and (3) to ensure that all evidence tending to aid in the ascertaining of the truth be laidbefore the court, whether it be consistent with the contention of the prosecution that the accused is guilty.

. . . The state’s attorney, thus, is an officer charged with important duties and responsibilities in the administration ofjustice. Such duties ofa state’s attorney are entirely consistent withjudicialpoweras prescribedby
ourconstitution.’’ (Citations omitted; internalquotation marks omitted.) Massameno v. Statewide Grievance Committee, 234 Conn. 539, 556–57, 663A.2d 317 (1995). It also recognized: ‘‘It is in part due to the recognition that prosecutors are an integral part of the judicial system that courts have granted absolute immunity from civil actions to prosecutors.

. . . Prosecutorial immunity derives from the immunity attached to judicial proceedings.

. . . Such immunity covers acts that
were performed by a prosecutor as an integral part of thejudicialprocess.’’ (Citations omitted; internalquotation marks omitted.) Id., 567–68; see also Carrubba v. Moskowitz, 274 Conn. 533, 541, 877 A.2d 773 (2005); Barese v. Clark, 62 Conn. App. 58, 61, 773 A.2d 946 (2001) (‘‘OurSupreme Court, theUnitedStates Supreme Court and the federal courts ofappeal have long recognized the existence of, and the need for, prosecutorial immunity. Such immunity exists to allow prosecutors at the state and federal level to be free to perform their essential role in the judicial process without the possibility of civil liability hanging over their head as
a sword of Damocles.’’).
The remaining question, therefore, is whether the decision ofMurphy and Kane notto prosecute the state marshals is cloaked with absolute immunity. We concludethatitis, andtherefore, the courtproperlygranted the motion to dismiss. As noted inMassameno v. Statewide Grievance Committee, supra, 234 Conn. 556–57, the determination of whether there are reasonable grounds to proceed with a criminal charge is a duty of
a state’s attorney that is consistent with the judicial powerprescribed bythe Connecticut constitution. This function is an integral part of the judicial process, and thus is entitled to absolute immunity. Id., 567. We also note that the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit expressly held in the Schloss v. Bouse, 876F.2d287, 290 (2dCir. 1989), that‘‘absoluteimmunity must also protectthe [state] prosecutorfrom [42 U.S.C. § 1983] damages suitsbased onhis decisionnottoprosecute.’’ (Emphasis in original.) See also Barrett v. United States, 798 F.2d 565, 572 (2d Cir. 1986) (federal prosecutor entitled to absolute immunity for decision nottoprosecute);Daceyv.Dorsey, 568 F.2d275, 276–78 (2d Cir.) (United States attorney absolutely immune from suit alleging he failedto carry outhis duties), cert. denied, 436 U.S. 906, 98 S. Ct. 2238, 56 L. Ed. 2d 405 (1978). The Second Circuit reasoned that many, though not all, ofthe reasons supporting absolute immunityfor the decisionofaprosecutorto commenceaprosecution also apply when there is a decision to not prosecute.Schloss v. Bouse, supra, 290. Applying these precedents to the present case, we agree with the trial court that Kane and Murphy were cloaked in absolute immunity with respectto their decision notto prosecute the state marshals, and therefore thatthe courtproperly granted the motion to dismiss this cause of action.28
IV
The plaintiff’s final claim is that the court improperly determined that he lacked standing to seek injunctive relief 29 in the form of a court order eliminating the present marshal system and replacing it with a framework described in his complaint. The court concluded that the plaintiff had failed to allege or demonstrate that he was likely to suffer irreparable harm in the future as aresult ofimproperconductbystate marshals and that, therefore, he lacked standing to bring a claim for injunctive relief. We agree with the trial court and therefore conclude that it properly granted the defendants’ motionto dismiss countsix oftheplaintiff’s complaint.30 ‘‘[S]tanding is the legal right to setjudicial machinery in motion. One cannot rightfully invoke thejurisdiction of the court unless he [or she] has, in an individual or representative capacity, some real interest in the cause of action, or a legal or equitable right, title or interest in the subject matter of the controversy.

. . . Nevertheless, [s]tanding is not a technical rule intended to keep aggrieved parties out of court; nor is it a test of substantive rights. Rather it is a practical concept designedto ensurethatcourts andparties arenotvexed by suits brought to vindicate nonjusticiable interests and thatjudicial decisions which may affect the rights ofothers are forged in hot controversy, with each view fairly and vigorously represented.

. . . If a party is found to lack standing, the court is without subject matter jurisdiction to determine the cause.

. . . A determination regarding a trial court’s subject matter jurisdiction is a question of law. When

. . . the trial court draws conclusions of law, our review is plenary and we must decide whether its conclusions are legally and logically correct and find support in the facts that appearin the record.’’ (Citation omitted; internal quotation marks omitted.) Fairchild Heights Residents Assn., Inc

. v. Fairchild Heights, Inc., 310 Conn. 797, 820, 82 A.3d 602 (2014). ‘‘Standing requires no more than a colorable claim of injury; a [party] ordinarily establishes

. . . standing by allegations of injury [that he or she has suffered or is likely to suffer]. Similarly, standing exists to attempt to vindicate arguably protected interests.

. . . Standing is established by showing that the party claiming it is authorized by statute to bring suit or is classically aggrieved.

. . . The fundamental test for determining [classical] aggrievement encompasses a well-settled twofold determination: first, the party claimingaggrievementmustsuccessfullydemonstrate aspecific, personal and legal interest in [the subject matter of the challenged action], as distinguished from a general interest, such as is the concern of all members of the community as a whole. Second, the party claiming aggrievement must successfully establish that this specific personal and legal interest has been specially and injuriously affected by the [challenged action].’’ (Internal quotation marks omitted.) Wilcox v. Webster Ins., Inc., 294 Conn. 206, 214–15, 982 A.2d 1053 (2009); Andross v. West Hartford, 285 Conn. 309, 322–24, 939 A.2d 1146 (2008); Connecticut Associated Builders & Contractors v. Hartford, 251 Conn. 169, 178, 740 A.2d 813 (1999) (‘‘[t]o establish standing to raise an issue for adjudication, a complainant must make a colorable claim of direct injury’’).
The court concluded that the plaintiff had failed to allege ordemonstratethathe waslikelyto sufferirreparable harm and that he therefore lacked standing to bring a cause ofaction forprospective injunctive relief. After reviewing the plaintiff’s complaint, we agree with the analysis and conclusion ofthe trial court. The plaintiff has failed to establish, on a prospective basis, that he likely would be harmed as a result ofillegal conduct by state marshals. Accordingly, we conclude that the court properly determined that the plaintiff lacked standing to bring a claim for injunctive reliefas alleged in count six of the complaint.
The judgment is affirmed.
In this opinion the other judges concurred.

1 The defendants are the state, former Attorney General Richard Blumenthal, Assistant Attorney General Philip Miller, former director of the State Marshal CommissionJames Neil, the followingmembers orformermembers of the State Marshal Commission: Dennis F. Kerrigan, Marie Knudsen, William Cote, the Honorable William T. Cremins and Joseph Ubaldi, Chief State’s Attorney Kevin T. Kane, State’s Attorney Scott J. Murphy and state Marshals Albenie Gagnon and TimothyJ. Bennett. The trial court noted that Attorney General George Jepsen is listed in the plaintiff’s complaint as a defendant, but is not listed on the summons.
2 ‘‘[I]t is the established policy of the Connecticut courts to be solicitous of pro se litigants and when it does not interfere with the rights of other parties to construe the rules ofpractice liberally in favor ofthe pro se party.

. . . Although we allow pro se litigants some latitude, the right of selfrepresentation provides no attendant license not to comply with relevant rules ofprocedural and substantive law.

. . . This is because [a] party who, unskilled in such matters, seeks to remedy some claimed wrong byinvoking processes which are at best technical and complicated, is very ill advised and assumes amost difficult task.

. . . Nonetheless, while the court exhibits

some degree ofleniency toward a pro se appellant, it cannot entirely disregard established principles of law.’’ (Citation omitted; footnote omitted; internal quotation marks omitted.) Solomon v. ConnecticutMedical Examining Board, 85 Conn. App. 854, 861–62, 859 A.2d 932 (2004), cert. denied, 273 Conn. 906, 868 A.2d 748 (2005).

3 Due to the procedural posture ofthis case, we are mindful that we must ‘‘take the facts to be those alleged in the complaint, including those facts necessarily implied from the allegations, construing them in a manner most favorabletothepleader.’’ (Internalquotationmarks omitted.)Millerv.Egan, 265 Conn. 301, 305, 828 A.2d 549 (2003).

4 According to its website, the State Marshal Commission, an Executive Branch commission, ‘‘was created by Public Act 00-99, in 2000. Chapter 78 of the Connecticut General Statutes sets forth the law covering the state marshal system. Pursuant to [Connecticut General Statutes §] 6-38b theState Marshal Commission consists of eight members appointed by the specified executive,judicial and legislative branch authorities. The term for members is three years. There are also two Ex-Officio members of the Commission from the State Marshals Advisory Board. ‘‘The State Marshal Commission generallymeets monthlyto conductbusiness underits statutorymandate. The Commission implements examination and appointment procedures as well as training for new appointees. By statutes, regulations and policies, the Commission also is involved in many functions, including but not limited to setting training requirements, professional standards, audit policies, disciplinary protocol, restraining order rotationsandadministrativeproceduresfortheefficientandfairoperation ofthestatemarshalsystem.’’ (Emphasis added.) Department ofAdministrative Services, ‘‘State Marshal Commission,’’ available at http://das.ct.gov/ cr1.aspx?page=107 (last visited May 6, 2014).

5 The plaintiff did not directly appeal from the judgment of the court dismissing that August 24, 2009 action against the state. Nearly three years later, the plaintiff filed a motion to open that judgment, which the court denied. This court recently affirmed that judgment. See Morneau v. State, 148 Conn. App. 68, 83 A.3d 729, cert. denied, 311 Conn. 933, A.3d (2014). The claims against Gagnon and Bennett inthe August 24, 2009 action remain pending before the Superior Court. On March 14, 2014, the court, Young, J

., entered a scheduling order that included a jury trial date of January, 2015. SeeMorneauv. State, Superior Court,judicial district ofNew Britain, Docket No. CV-09-5013995 (August 26, 2009), aff’d, 148 Conn. App. 68, 83 A.3d 729, cert. denied, 311 Conn. 933, A.3d (2014).

6 The term ‘‘claim’’ in this context is statutorily defined as ‘‘a petition for the payment or refund of money by the state or for permission to sue the state

. . . .’’ General Statutes § 4-141.

7 Asnotedinthe defendants’brief, theplaintiffreferencedGeneralStatutes § 50-70. As no such statute exists, this appears to have been a scrivener’s

error. General Statutes § 52-70 provides: ‘‘Each officer serving any process shall endorsethereontheitems ofhisfees, withthenumberofmilestraveled by him. If any officer demands and receives on any civil process more thanhislegalfees, heshallpay threefold theamountofallthefeesdemanded to the defendant in the action in which the illegal fees were exacted, if suchfees have been paid by the defendant, otherwise to the plaintiff in such action. The provisions of this section shall not apply to any case in which the fees claimed to be illegal have been taxed and allowed by the proper authority.’’ (Emphasis added.)

8 In the memorandum of decision in the present case, the trial court explained the constitutional violations alleged by the plaintiff as follows: ‘‘[T]he state violated the plaintiff’s rights under the due process and equal protection clauses when: (1) the State Marshal Commission dismissed the plaintiff’s complaints against Aresco and Corneroli; (2) the State Marshal Commission failed to provide the plaintiffwith certain documents pursuant to a [freedom of information] request; (3) various state’s attorneys refused the plaintiff’s demand that they prosecute the marshals for billing theft; and (4) the state continued to use Gagnon’s services.’’

9 General Statutes § 4-148 (a) provides: ‘‘Except as provided in subsection (b) ofthis section, no claim shall be presented underthis chapterbut within

one year after it accrues. Claims for injury to person or damage to property shallbe deemedto accrue onthe datewhenthe damage orinjuryis sustained

or discovered orinthe exercise ofreasonable care shouldhave been discovered, provided no claim shall be presented more than three years from the date of the act or event complained of.’’

10 Section 1983 of title 42 of the United States Code provides in relevant part: ‘‘Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, or any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within thejurisdiction thereofto the deprivation ofany rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress

. . . .’’

11 Practice Book § 10-30 provides inrelevantpart: ‘‘(a) Amotionto dismiss shall be used to assert: (1) lack ofjurisdiction over the subject matter

. . . . (c) This motion shall always be filed with a supporting memorandum oflaw and, whereappropriate, withsupportingaffidavitsastofactsnotapparenton the record.’’

12 The plaintifffiled a‘‘motionto strike’’ the defendants’ motionto dismiss. The court considered this as an objection to the motion to dismiss. See,e.g., Young v. Bridgeport, 135 Conn. App. 699, 705, 42 A.3d 514 (2012) (substance of motion controls its outcome rather than title used by party); Ocwen Federal Bank, FSB v. Charles, 95 Conn. App. 315, 320 n.7, 898 A.2d 197 (same), cert. denied, 279 Conn. 909, 902 A.2d 1069 (2006).

13 The trial court concluded that ‘‘[t]his also applies to certain allegations set forth in count one against the attorney general andthe assistant attorney general for their alleged failure to bring a civil action against the marshals,

as well as the allegation that the State Marshal Commission refused to comply with a former written opinion from the Office ofthe Attorney General. These allegations were not mentioned in the initial notice of claim and

are therefore dismissed.’’

14 ‘‘The source of sovereign immunity power in the state of Connecticut is the constitution, and it is recognized that a sovereign is immune from suit on the logical and practical ground that there can be no legal right as against the authority that makes the law on which the right depends.’’ (Internal quotation marks omitted.) Lipwich v. Frankel, 44 Conn. App. 651, 656, 691 A.2d 1099 (quoting Horton v. Meskill, 172 Conn. 615, 623, 376 A.2d 359 [1977]), cert. denied, 241 Conn. 907, 695 A.2d 538 (1997).

15 General Statutes § 4-160 (c) provides: ‘‘In each action authorized by the Claims Commissioner pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) of this section or by the General Assembly pursuant to section 4-159 or 4-159a, the claimant shall allege such authorization and the date on which it was granted, except that evidence of such authorization shall not be admissible in such action

as evidence of the state’s liability. The state waives its immunity from liability andfrom suit in each such action and waives all defenses which might arisefrom the eleemosynary orgovernmental nature ofthe activity complained of

. The rights and liability ofthe state in each such action shall be coextensive with and shall equalthe rights andliability ofprivate persons in like circumstances.’’ (Emphasis added.)

16 General Statutes § 4-147 provides in relevant part: ‘‘Any person wishing to present a claim against the state shall file with the Office of the Claims Commissioner anotice ofclaim, in duplicate, containing the following information: (1) The name and address of the claimant; the name and address of his principal, if the claimant is acting in a representative capacity, and the name and address of his attorney, if the claimant is so represented; (2)

a concise statement ofthe basis ofthe claim, including the date, time, place and circumstances ofthe act or event complained of; (3) a statement ofthe amount requested; and (4) a request for permission to sue the state, if such permission is sought. A notice of claim, if sent by mail, shall be deemed to have been filed with the Office of the Claims Commissioner on the date such notice of claim is postmarked.

. . . The Office ofthe Claims Commissioner shall promptly deliver a copy of the notice of claim to the Attorney General. Such notice shall be for informational purposes only and shall not be subject to any formal or technical requirements, except as may be necessary for clarity of presentation and facility of understanding.’’

17 In paragraph 8 of the first count of his complaint, the plaintiff alleged that the attorneys general failed to perform their preexisting legal duties and failed to suppress criminally operated businesses by not enforcing the CUTPA or civil RICO statutes. In paragraph 9 ofthe first count, the plaintiff claimed that he was damaged financially by the failure of the attorney general’s office to perform those duties and, thus, his state and federal constitutional rights to due process and equal protection were violated. In paragraph 10 ofthe first count, the plaintiff asserted that Miller engaged in wilful misconduct, and in paragraph 11, he claimed that Miller’s filing of motions in the underlying proceedings constituted a violation of rule 3.3 (c) of the Rules of Professional Conduct.

18 Additionally, the plaintiff’s claim to the Claims Commission does not encompass or support his later allegations that the attorneys general or the State Marshal Commission violated his rights under § 1983, that state actors violated CUTPA to his detriment, or that the attorney general’s office or the State Marshal Commission engaged in vexatious litigation against the defendant.

19 The plaintiff had alleged that the State Marshal Commission violated his constitutional rights by dismissing his complaints against Aresco and Corneroliand denyinghisrequestmadepursuanttothe Freedom ofInformation Act.

20 The defendants also contend that the resolution does not validly waive sovereign immunity because it does not comply with the requirements of § 4-148 (b). That statute provides: ‘‘The General Assembly may, by special act, authorize aperson to present a claim to the Claims Commissioner afterthe time limitation set forth in subsection (a) of this section have expired ifit deems such authorizationto bejust and equitable and makes an express findingthat such authorization is supportedby compelling equitable circumstances and would serve apublic purpose. Such finding shall not be subject to review by the Superior Court.’’ General Statutes § 4-148 (b). Specifically, the defendants argue that ‘‘[t]he Resolution purporting to authorize the Plaintiff’s action does not comply withthose requirements because: (1) it is not aspecial act ofthe Legislature; (2) itdoesnotincludeanexpressfindingthatsuchauthorizationissupported by compelling equitable circumstances and would serve a public purpose; and (3) it authorized direct suit in the Superior Court instead ofpermitting Plaintiff to proceed with his claims before the Claims Commissioner.’’ In its memorandum of decision, the court noted that ‘‘[i]n regard to the defendants’

. . . two arguments [regarding the use of a special act rather than a resolution and authorizing suit in the Superior Court], case law is demonstrably unclear as to whether the General Assembly must state its findings specifically in a ‘special act’ and whether the General Assembly has authorityto allow claimsto be submitted directlytothe SuperiorCourt.’’ Rather than deciding the case on these bases, the court instead focused on the constitutionality ofthe resolution under the public emolument analysis. We follow the path taken by the trial court with respect to this issue.

21 GeneralStatutes § 52-584providesinrelevantpart: ‘‘Noactiontorecover damages for injury to the person, or to real or personal property, caused by negligence, or by reckless or wanton misconduct

. . . shall be brought but within two years from the date when the injury is first sustained or discovered or in the exercise of reasonable care should have been discovered, and except that no such action may be brought more than three years from the date or the act or omission complained of

. . . .’’

22 General Statutes § 52-595 provides: ‘‘If any person, liable to an action by another, fraudulently conceals from him the existence of the cause of such action, such cause of action shall be deemed to accrue against such person so liable therefor atthe time whenthe person entitledto sue thereon first discovers its existence.’’

23 Contra non valentem is a judicially created doctrine that, inter alia, appears to be analogous to the doctrine codified in § 52-595. See, e.g., Rajnowski v. St. Patrick’s Hospital, 564 So. 2d 671, 674 (La. 1990). Our research does not reveal any Connecticut case citing to this doctrine.

24 The trial court did consider and reject the plaintiff’s argument that the continuing course of conduct doctrine tolled the statute of limitations. Specifically, the court concluded that the plaintiff had not established that there was an ongoing duty or a special relationship between the plaintiff and the defendants.

25 Article first, § 1, of the constitution of Connecticut provides: ‘‘All men when they form a social compact, are equal in rights; and no man or set of

men are entitledto exclusive public emoluments orprivileges from the community.’’

26 In his brief, the plaintiff suggests that the court was biased when it abused its discretion in concluding that the joint resolution constituted a public emolument. He further claims to provide five examples of bias or malice since commencing this action and that ten unnamed members of the ConnecticutBarAssociationhaveviolatedlaw, the Rules ofProfessional Conduct or judicial canons for the purpose of vexing and troubling his lawsuit. Although we consider a claim of judicial bias to be of a serious nature, it must be presented properly to both the trial court and this court. These references fail to demonstrate how they were raised before and addressed by the trial court. See Lynn v. Lynn, 145 Conn. App. 33, 37–38, 74A.3d 506 (2013). We therefore decline to considerthis claim. SeeAntogiovanni v. America’s Homes & Communities Real Estate, LLC, 130 Conn. App. 286, 290 n.4, 22A.3d 706, cert. denied, 302 Conn. 939, 28A.3d993 (2011).

27 ‘‘Judges are granted absolute immunity from liability for acts taken pursuant to their judicial power and authority.

. . . The concern for the integrity ofthejudicial process underlying the absolute immunity ofjudges also is reflected in the extension of absolute immunity to certain others who perform functions closely associated with the judicial process.

. . . Included among these other are prosecutors, administrative lawjudges and hearing examiners, grand jurors and witnesses in judicial proceedings.’’ (Citations omitted; internal quotation marks omitted.) Oliva v. Heller, 839 F.2d 37, 39 (2d Cir. 1988).
