The plaintiffs also raise the following issues on appeal: whether the trial court improperly (1) instructed the jury that the plaintiffs had the burden of proof with respect to actual or constructive notice of the violation of the statute concerning lead paint, (2) instructed the jury that the defendants were entitled to a reasonable time after notice to make the necessary repairs pursuant to General Statutes § 47a-7 (2), and (3) refused to allow the plaintiffs to question a witness regarding the presence of lead-based paint in other apartments owned by the defendants. Because we conclude that the trial court improperly directed a verdict with regard to the counts on *129strict liability and remand this case to the trial court, we need not address these other claims, as they are not likely to occur upon retrial.
