                                     Robinson v. V. D.
       Contrary to the plaintiffs’ alternative ground for affirming the trial court’s
       decision, § 52-196a did not, on its face or as applied, violate the plaintiffs’
       constitutional right to a jury trial under either the federal or state constitu-
       tions, as § 52-196a does not require trial courts to resolve disputed issues
       of fact or to dismiss claims that otherwise would have survived summary
       judgment or a motion for a directed verdict.
       The plaintiffs failed to establish beyond a reasonable doubt that either prong
       of the separation of powers doctrine set forth in the state constitution was
       implicated by § 52-196a.
