Conn. Civ. Jury Instr. 4.2-6
Effect of Incorporated Documents
If you find that the parties entered into a contract that refers to other existing document[s] in such
a manner as to establish that they intended to make the terms and conditions of that other
document[s] part of their contract, you should interpret that incorporated document[s] as part of
the contract between the parties according to the rules I have given you for interpreting contracts.
The document[s] incorporated need not be attached to the contract nor signed nor initialed to be
part of the contract unless the contract so requires.
In the absence of an express provision, incorporated documents may neither expand nor restrict
the obligations of the parties under the basic contract.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
