With respect to punitive damages, the plaintiffs’ final claim is that the court improperly denied their request for posttrial discovery on the defendants’ financial background. The plaintiffs argue that because the purpose of punitive damages under CUTPA is deterrence, the court should have granted discovery into the defendants’ financial circumstances so that it could determine the amount of punitive damages that would deter the defendants from violating CUTPA in the future. We do not agree.
