Conn. Practice Book § 41-13
Return and Suppression of Seized Property
A person aggrieved by a search and seizure
may make a motion to the judicial authority who
has jurisdiction of the case, or if such jurisdiction
has not yet been invoked, then to the judicial
authority who issued the warrant or to the court
in which the case is pending, for the return of
specific items of property and to suppress their
use as evidence on the grounds that:
(1) The property was illegally seized without a
warrant under circumstances requiring a warrant;
(2) The warrant is insufficient on its face;
(3) The property seized is not that described in
the warrant;
(4) There was not probable cause for believing
the existence of the grounds on which the warrant
was issued; or
(5) The warrant was illegally executed.
