Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: return date, she should have been allowed to plead to the amended complaint. The plaintiff asserts that the amendment responded to and corrected a procedural technicality only a scrivener's error. Although the plaintiff followed the court's order and filed an amendment, it has maintained that, under the circumstances, no amendment was necessarily required. Relying on Merrill v. NRT New England, Inc., 126 Conn. App. 314, 12 A.3d 575, cert. granted on other grounds, 300 Conn. 925, 15 A.3d 629 (2011), the plaintiff further asserts that the defective return date implicated only personal jurisdiction. Our Supreme Court has stated that a defect in process implicates personal jurisdiction. See Lostritto v. Community Action Agency of New Haven, Inc., 269 Conn. 10, 31-33, 848 A.2d 418 (2004) (<HOLDING>); see also Bohonnon Law Firm, LLC v. Baxter,
