2005 Connecticut Code - Sec. 52-78. Joinder of executor or administrator for a deceased joint contractor.
Sec. 52-78. Joinder of executor or administrator for a deceased joint contractor. (a) In any case in which any joint contractor, other than a partner, has died, the
executor of the will or administrator of the estate of the deceased joint contractor may
be joined with the surviving contractor or contractors as a joint plaintiff, in any action
upon any joint contract of the decedent and the survivor or survivors, and as a joint
defendant if the estate of the decedent is not in settlement as an insolvent estate. If the
estate of the decedent is joined as a joint defendant and afterwards is represented insolvent, the insolvency may be noted on the record, and thereupon the action, in respect
to the executor or administrator, shall be discontinued.
