Conn. Practice Book § 84-3
Stay of Execution
(a) In any action in which a stay of proceedings
was in effect during the pendency of the appeal,
proceedings to enforce or carry out the judgment
shall be stayed until the time to file the petition has
expired. If no stay of proceedings was in effect,
but the decision of the Appellate Court would
change the position of any party from its position
during the pendency of the appeal, proceedings
to enforce or carry out the judgment shall be
stayed until the time to file the petition has expired.
If a petition by a party is timely filed, the proceedings shall continue to be stayed until the Supreme
Court acts on the petition and, if the petition is
granted, until the final determination of the cause.
(b) Any party may file a motion in the Appellate
Court to terminate the stay provided for in subsection (a). Such motion shall comply with Sections
66-2 and 66-3 and state, in the first paragraph,
the panel of Appellate Court judges that heard
the case. The presiding judge, or if such presiding
judge is unavailable, the most senior judge on
such panel who is available, may act upon such
a motion for termination of the stay up to the time
the Supreme Court acts upon the petition. If the
judge is of the opinion that the certification proceedings have been filed only for delay or that
the due administration of justice so requires, such
judge may order that the stay be terminated.
