Eviction in CT and Stipulated Agreement

[Mat O'Grady]

Hello Everyone,

I am in the process of my first eviction. I have gotten to the stage where I have denied their special defense and a meeting with the housing counselor is being scheduled to see if we can come to a stipulated agreement.

Has anyone done one of these in CT? If so, do you have any tips for the meeting? Should I even create a stipulated agreement?

It is a pretty basic case, the tenant owes one month rent and $300 from the previous month rent. The tenant filed a special defense claiming he paid the rent. I filed a response denying his special defense and now we are going to be scheduled for a meeting the the housing counselor.

Any suggestions or past experience would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Yeah, I learned that the hard way. Thanks.
