Syllabus

The plaintiffs sought to quiet title to certain real property. The trial court rendered judgment for the plaintiffs on their complaint and in favor of the defendant in part on a counterclaim it had filed, from which the defendant appealed and the plaintiffs cross appealed to this court. The trial court had found in the plaintiffs’ favor on their claim of adverse possession and, with respect to the counterclaim, granted the defendantan easement by necessity over the disputed area. On appeal, the defendant claimed, inter alia, that the trial court improperly found in favor of the plaintiffs on their claim of adverse possession, and on cross appeal, the plaintiffs claimed that the court erred in granting the defendant the easement by necessity. Held that the trial court having fully and accurately addressed the relevant issues in its memorandum of decision, and having set forth a proper statement of the facts and applicable law, further discussion by this court was not necessary, and the judgment
was affirmed.

Procedural History Action to quiet title to certain real property allegedly acquired by adverse possession, and for other relief, brought to the Superior Court in the judicial district ofStamford-Norwalk, where the defendant filed a counterclaim; thereafter, the matter was tried to the court, Povodator, J

Richard E. Castiglioni , with whom were Bridgitte E. Mott and, on the brief, Jonathan J. Kelson , for the appellees-appellants (plaintiffs).Opinion PER CURIAM. The defendant, 56 Locust Road, LLC, appeals from the judgment of the trial court quieting title to a disputed area of land in favor of the plaintiffs, Sanle Zhang and Yanpin Li, and granting the defendanta ten foot easement by necessity over the easterly portion of the disputed area. The plaintiffs cross appeal from the portion of the judgment in which the court granted the defendant the easement by necessity. On appeal, the defendant claims: (1) because the plaintiffs’ predecessors in title did not convey, either orally or by deed, their interest in the disputed area, the trial court erred in finding in favor of the plaintiffs on their claimof adverse possession; (2) the trial court failed to balance the equities in this case by rejecting the defendant’s equitable defenses; (3) General Statutes §§ 47- 37 and 52-575 are unconstitutional because they permit a taking of property without just compensation; and (4) the easement granted by the court may not provide meaningful access to the defendant because the court specifically subjected the easement to the town’s land use regulations. 1 The plaintiffs claim on cross appealthat the court erred in granting the defendant an easement by necessity.
Having examined the appellate record and having considered the briefs and the arguments of the parties, we conclude that the judgment of the trial court should be affirmed. The trial court fully and accurately addressed the issues relevant to the parties’ appeals and, in its memorandum of decision, set forth a proper statement of both the facts and the applicable law. Any further discussion by this court would serve no useful purpose.
The judgment is affirmed.

1 In its fourth claim, the defendant argues: ‘‘ If the defendant is unable to secure the necessary municipal approvals . . . it [will] have no way to access the larger, nearly three acre, portion of the now severed 56 Locust Road property. Such a result would completely frustrate the trial court’s order and would be contrary to Connecticut precedent requiring that the defendant be permitted to access its now landlocked property.’’ (Emphasisadded.) We conclude that this claim is premature and, therefore, unreviewable. ‘‘It is axiomatic that a claim is not ripe for adjudication when an injury is hypothetical, or a claim [is] contingent upon some event that has not and indeed may never transpire.’’ (Internal quotation marks omitted.)

[and we therefore] must be satisfied that the case before [us] does not present a hypothetical injury or a claim contingent upon some event that has not and indeed may never transpire’’ [internal quotation marks omitted]), cert. denied, 290 Conn. 909, 964 A.2d 544 (2009).
