the plaintiff in this case did not withdraw his summary process action in its entirety. See footnote 1 of this opinion. Furthermore, the court’s order restoring the defendant to possession did not revive the parties’ lease but, rather, restored the status quo ante prior to the plaintiffs locking the defendant out of the premises. Unlike the withdrawal of a summary process action, an order restoring a tenant to possession pursuant to § 47a-45a does not “effectively [erase] the court slate clean as though the eviction . . . had never been commenced.” (Internal quotation marks omitted.)
