In their appeal to the Superior Court, the plaintiffs did not allege that Saeedi’s claims were time barred, but that the thirty day filing period divested the office of public hearings of jurisdiction over Saeedi’s claims. In their trial brief to the court, the plaintiffs argued that the filing period rendered the office of public hearings without “jurisdiction over [Saeedi’s] untimely allegations.” Saeedi, in his trial brief to the court, again argued that the “plaintiffs’ statute of limitations defense . . . [had] been waived.” The court, in adopting the referee’s reasoning, found that the filing period in § 4-61dd is not a jurisdictional limitation, and is, therefore subject to tolling under the continuing course of conduct doctrine.
