Opinion

majority opinion

The petition of the state of Connecticut for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 50 Conn. App. 748 (AC 16474), is granted, limited to the following issues:

“1. Did the Appellate Court properly conclude that literal, rather than substantial, compliance is required in order for a defendant’s plea of guilty to be valid under Practice Book § 39-20?

“2. If the answer to the first question is no, was there substantial compliance with Practice Book § 39-20?”
