Following a public hearing, the referee issued a memorandum of decision on August 25, 2008, in which he concluded that the city and McGuinness had retaliated against the plaintiff by initiating the 1995 lawsuit and by delaying their consideration of her special exception permit application from December, 1996, to January, 1997; however, the referee found that she failed to prove that she had incurred damages as a result of the two retaliatory acts. The referee also found that the plaintiff failed to prove that the city had engaged in a retaliatory boycott of her business. Accordingly, the referee ordered the city and McGuinness to cease and desist from any retaliatory action against the parties or any other complainants and to post public notices to its employees concerning discriminatory practices, but the referee made no award of damages. Following the plaintiffs motion for reconsideration, the referee affirmed his decision. The plaintiffs appeal from that decision was dismissed by the Superior Court, Cohn, J., and the plaintiffs subsequent motion for reargument was denied. This appeal followed.
