Torrington, Conn., Code of Ordinances ch. 24 § 24-6
Appeals
Operative Text
Any person aggrieved by any order of the Fair Rent Commission may appeal to the Superior Court for the judicial district in which the town is located. An appeal must be taken no later than 45 days from the date the written decision is mailed to the parties. The filing of an appeal shall not, of itself, stay enforcement of the Commission's decision. See G.S. § 4-183(f).
Under Torrington Code of Ordinances ch. 24 § 24-6, any party who disagrees with a Fair Rent Commission order has the right to challenge that decision in the Superior Court for the judicial district where Torrington is located. The appeal window is 45 days from the date the written decision is mailed, and simply filing an appeal does not automatically pause or stop the Commission's order from being enforced. This provision mirrors the standard administrative appeal framework referenced in G.S. § 4-183(f).
Plain English — not legal advice.
Torrington Code of Ordinances ch. 24 § 24-6 establishes that a Fair Rent Commission order remains in effect even if an appeal is filed, meaning compliant operators generally continue to observe the Commission's directives during any pending appeal period. Property owners who receive an adverse decision typically track the 45-day mailing date carefully, as that deadline governs when a Superior Court appeal must be initiated. Consulting with a licensed Connecticut attorney familiar with administrative law is a common step for operators considering this appeal path.

Under ch. 24 § 24-6, tenants who receive an unfavorable Fair Rent Commission decision have up to 45 days from the date the written decision is mailed to seek review in Superior Court. Importantly, a landlord's appeal of a decision favorable to a tenant does not automatically suspend that decision's enforcement, which may be relevant when considering how to respond to an ongoing order. Tenant-rights organizations in Connecticut can help explain what the appeal process generally involves and what options may be available.
