Conn. Gen. Stat. § 47a § 47a-26e
Order of payments on appeal.
Operative Text
If an order of payments is in effect on the date of judgment in the trial court and an appeal is taken by any party, the order shall remain in effect and compliance with the order shall constitute satisfactory compliance with subsection (a) of section 47a-35a.
Under Conn. Gen. Stat. § 47a-26e, when a court has issued a payment order in a housing case and either party files an appeal, that existing payment order does not automatically expire or change. The order stays in force throughout the appeal, and following it counts as satisfying the payment requirements set out in Conn. Gen. Stat. § 47a-35a(a). In other words, the appeal process does not create a gap in the payment obligations established by the trial court.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers involved in an appeal of a housing judgment should be aware that under Conn. Gen. Stat. § 47a-26e, any payment order issued by the trial court continues to apply during the pendency of the appeal. Compliant operators generally continue making payments in accordance with the existing order rather than treating the appeal as a pause in their obligations. Maintaining records of all payments made under the order during the appeal period is a practice commonly associated with demonstrating compliance.

Under Conn. Gen. Stat. § 47a-26e, tenants should know that a payment order issued before or at the time of a trial court judgment remains in effect if an appeal is filed by either party. Continuing to make payments as required by that order generally satisfies the statutory payment obligations under § 47a-35a(a) during the appeal. Tenants who have questions about how this provision applies to their circumstances may wish to consult a tenant-rights organization or legal aid provider familiar with Connecticut housing law.
