statute or other sanctions might apply to prejudgment remedies. You also

Conn. 548 (2008) The
dispositive issue in this certified appeal is whether the Appellate
Court properly concluded that a prejudgment remedy application is not a
civil action for purposes of a subsequent claim for the tort of
vexatious litigation. We agree that such an application is not a civil
action for purposes of a subsequent claim for vexatious litigation, and
accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the Appellate Court.
