In the present case, the trial court’s dismissal of the plaintiff’s interlocutory
administrative appeal would have resulted in an inadequate remedy for the
plaintiff because it had asserted a colorable claim of immunity from suit,
derived from the separation of powers doctrine, and because such a dismissal
would have resulted in an irrevocable loss of the immunity that the plaintiff
was claiming, which is a situation that § 4-183 (b) was intended to prevent.
   State of Connecticut, Judicial Branch v. Commission on Human Rights &
                   Opportunities, Office of Public Hearings
The trial court correctly determined that, under the present circumstances,
the commission, an agency of the executive branch, was required to dismiss
M’s complaint against the plaintiff, as the commission’s exercise of juris-
diction would violate the separation of powers doctrine, and the plaintiff
accordingly was entitled to immunity from adjudication of M’s complaint
by the commission.
