The landlord does not challenge the procedures employed by the commissioner, nor does she challenge his authority to issue orders relating to residential security deposits. She did not appeal from the commissioner’s order pursuant to the UAPA, nor did she move to open the decision or request a rehearing from the commissioner. Rather, she simply failed to comply with the commissioner’s order, and, after the commissioner sought enforcement of that order, improperly sought to retry his factual findings and legal conclusions. Although the court improperly conducted what amounted to a de novo trial on the merits of the order, it properly rendered judgment, in accordance with § 36a-50 (b) (1), enforcing the commissioner’s order. The court, additionally, in accordance with § 36a-50 (b) (2), properly assessed a $900 penalty against the landlord for failing to comply with the commissioner’s order.8
