Conn. Practice Book § 10-47
Evasive Denials
Denials must fairly meet the substance of the
allegations denied. Thus, when the payment of a
certain sum is alleged, and in fact a lesser sum
was paid, the defendant cannot simply deny the
payment generally, but must set forth how much
was paid to the defendant; and where any matter
of fact is alleged with divers circumstances, some
of which are untruly stated, it shall not be sufficient
to deny it as alleged, but so much as is true and
material should be stated or admitted, and the
rest only denied.
