  CARLTON JOLLEY v. CAPTAIN VINTON ET AL.
                (AC 38826)
                    Alvord, Keller and Beach, Js.
   Submitted on briefs January 6—officially released March 14, 2017

   (Appeal from Superior Court, judicial district of
                Hartford, Dubay, J.)
   Carlton Jolley, self-represented, the appellant (plain-
tiff), filed a brief.
  George Jepsen, attorney general, and Neil Parille,
assistant attorney general, filed a brief for the appel-
lees (defendants).
                        Opinion

  PER CURIAM. The plaintiff, Carlton Jolley, appeals
to this court claiming that the trial court improperly
granted the motion to dismiss filed by the defendants,
Captain Brian Vinton and Attorney General George Jep-
sen, based on statutory and sovereign immunity. The
defendants claim that the court correctly granted the
motion to dismiss with respect to Jepsen, but concede
that the court should not have granted the motion to
dismiss with respect to Vinton. After a careful review
of the briefs to this court and the record, and in light
of the defendants’ concession, we agree with the
defendants.
  The judgment of dismissal as to Vinton is reversed
and the case is remanded for further proceedings
according to law. The judgment is affirmed in all
other respects.
