Conn. Practice Book § 17-24
Promise To Pay Liquidated Sum
(a) In any action based upon an express or
implied promise to pay a definite sum and claiming
only liquidated damages, which may include interest, a reasonable attorney’s fee and other lawful
charges, the procedure set forth in Section 17-
20 and in Sections 17-25 through 17-28 shall be
followed, if there is a default of appearance. A
certificate of closed pleadings shall not be filed in
matters which fall within the scope of these rules
because such matters shall not proceed on the
inventory of pending cases requiring a hearing in
damages.
(b) When moving for default and judgment pursuant to Sections 17-25 through 17-28, a party
shall move for default and judgment on forms prescribed by the Office of the Chief Court Administrator.
