HARPER, J. In this summary process action, the
       plaintiff, the Housing Authority of the town of Manches-
       ter, appeals from the judgment of dismissal rendered
       by the trial court in favor of the defendant Brandon Cyr.1
       On appeal, the plaintiff claims that the court improperly
       granted the defendant’s motion to dismiss after con-
       cluding that the pretermination notice and notice to
       quit were invalid and that, therefore, it lacked subject
       matter jurisdiction to hear the summary process action.
       The defendant disagrees and further contends, for the
       first time on appeal and as an alternative ground for
       affirming the judgment of the trial court, that the preter-
       mination notice and notice to quit did not comply with
       federal notice requirements, and, therefore, the court
         1
           The plaintiff’s complaint also named a John Doe defendant and a Jane
       Doe defendant (Doe defendants). Counts three and four of the complaint
       are directed against the Doe defendants, alleging that they never had a right
       or privilege to occupy the property leased to the defendant Brandon Cyr,
       or, in the alternative, that the Doe defendants once had such a right or
       privilege, but it has since terminated. The Doe defendants were nonappearing
       parties before the trial court and are not participating in this appeal. Accord-
       ingly, we refer in this opinion to Brandon Cyr as the defendant.
