Description
The plaintiffs brought this action to
recover damages for the defendants' alleged
fraudulent misrepresentations in the sale of
a dwelling house and lot to the plaintiffs. At
the trial, the court first denied and later granted
the plaintiffs' motion to amend the complaint by
adding a second count claiming damages for
fraudulent nondisclosure. The allowance of this
amendment is assigned as one ground of error.

an earlier ruling excluding testimony concerning
conversations which had occurred between the date
of the signing of the contract of sale and the
actual transfer of title. This action is assigned
as another ground of error. The defendants

the evidence was inadmissible under either the
original complaint or the new second count because
conversations subsequent to the completed contract
of sale could not have induced the sale. It was
with, in the court's discretion to allow the
amendment. Practice Book 132; 134. There was no
error in the evidential ruling for reasons which
will later appear. The defendants make a wholesale attack on the
finding, which we have repeatedly discountenanced.

in diameter, made of reinforced concrete. In
1956, the defendants constructed a macadam
driveway on the property. In July, 1957,
