Conn. Practice Book § 10-15
Numerous Defendants
In any action in which there is an unusually
large number of defendants, the judicial authority, upon motion or of its own initiative, may order
that service of the pleadings of the defendants
and replies thereto need not be made as between
the defendants and that any cross complaint,
counterclaim, or matter constituting an avoidance
or affirmative defense contained therein shall be
deemed to be denied or avoided by all other
defendants and that the filing of any such pleading
and service thereof upon the plaintiff shall be
deemed to constitute due notice of it to the parties.
A copy of every such order shall be served upon
the parties in such manner and form as the judicial
authority directs.

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.
