2012 Connecticut General Statutes
Title 52 - Civil Actions
Chapter 921 - Replevin
Section 52-515 - When action of replevin maintainable.


CT Gen Stat § 52-515 (2012) What's This?

The action of replevin may be maintained to recover any goods or chattels in which the plaintiff has a general or special property interest with a right to immediate possession and which are wrongfully detained from him in any manner, together with the damages for such wrongful detention.

(1949 Rev., S. 8251; P.A. 82-160, S. 202.)

History: P.A. 82-160 made minor changes in wording.

See Sec. 42a-2-716(3) re goods identified to sales contract.

Court lacked a legal basis on which to grant opportunity to redeem, repurchase or bond goods or chattels subject to replevin because an action of replevin is purely statutory, not equitable, in nature. 105 CA 749.
