be or are not remedied within thirty (30) days, then
         [the plaintiff] may choose to terminate your lease and
         evict you. If [the plaintiff] chooses to proceed with lease
         termination, [the plaintiff] shall have a marshal serve
         you with a Notice to Quit that will tell you the date [the
         plaintiff] has terminated your lease and expects you to
         vacate the property. For purposes of counting your
         [thirty day] cure period, this [pretermination notice]
         shall be deemed received by you by June 16, 2022.
         Therefore, the [thirty day] period runs through and
         includes July 16, 2022.’’ The defendant did not request
         to initiate the grievance process. Thereafter, on October
         18, 2022, the plaintiff served the defendant with a notice
         to quit with a quit date of October 23, 2022. The defen-
         dant did not vacate the premises in accordance with
         the notice to quit.
            The plaintiff commenced the present summary pro-
         cess action in December, 2022. On December 13, 2022,
         the defendant appeared as a self-represented party and
         filed a summary process answer to the complaint on
         Judicial Form JD-HM-5, titled ‘‘Summary Process (Evic-
         tion) Answer to Complaint.’’ See Official Court Webforms,
         Form JD-HM-5, available at https://jud.ct.gov/webforms/
         forms/hm005.pdf (last visited October 3, 2024). In her
         answer, the defendant selected, inter alia, a special
         defense, which stated: ‘‘Additional reasons why I should
         not be evicted’’ and handwrote ‘‘I have lived on [the]
         premises for [thirteen years] and have complied with
         all rent payments and I am attempting to quit smoking.’’
         She also selected a second special defense: ‘‘The land-
         lord accepted rent or otherwise waived the Notice to
         use the tenant grievance procedures in one or more of the following ways:
         By leaving a message at 203-877-3223 ext. 15 no later than June 27, 2022;
         By mailing a written request to use the tenant grievance procedures to [the
         plaintiff’s] management office at P.O. Box 291, Milford, CT 06460 postmarked
         no later than June 27, 2022; or By hand delivery of a written request to use
         the tenant grievance procedures to [the plaintiff] at 75 DeMaio Drive, Milford
         CT, and stamped received by [the plaintiff’s] personnel no later than end
         of business on June 27, 2022. Your failure to make such a specific request
