The remedies available to a tenant in the event of the landlord’s dereliction of these statutory duties are various: the tenant may withhold his rental payment, § 47a-4a;5 the tenant may initiate an action to compel the landlord to perform his legal duties, § 47a-14h;6 or the tenant may interpose the landlord’s noncompliance as a defense in a summary process action, §§ 47a-20 and 47a-33.7
