Frazzini, the executive director of the Legal Aid Society of Hartford County, Inc., stated in his comments to the legislature regarding the revisions to § 4-183 (c.) that “[t]he problem is that the present statute is very hard to follow. I don’t know how many times I have seen lawyers who have thought that they could file the appeal within forty-five days and they were safe. The present section has two different filing deadlines. You have to file it, you have to serve the appeal on the agency within [thirty] days after the decision, and then within another [fifteen] days you have to file the appeal with court. But the number of people who do both within [forty-five] days is legion, and I think it’s really unfair that the appeal process is so difficult to understand and to comply with. What this bill does is it makes . . . things simpler. For example, one forty-five day appeal period, serve the party, serve the agency both. No confusion [on] how long you’ve got . . . for what you’ve got to do.” Conn. Joint Standing Committee Hearings, Judiciary, Pt. 1, 1988 Sess., p. 264.
