In light of the foregoing, we are persuaded that the
          present case is not the type of action the litigation
          privilege was intended to prevent—retaliatory actions
          for statements (or other communicative acts) occurring
          in the course of a judicial proceeding. Accordingly, we
          conclude that affording Caroline absolute immunity
          with respect to the plaintiff’s allegations concerning the
          Norway and Connecticut District Court actions is
          unwarranted.
             The judgment of the Appellate Court is reversed and
          the case is remanded to that court with direction to
          affirm the judgment of the trial court.
               In this opinion the other justices concurred.
