Furthermore, the plaintiffs reliance on Kufferman v. Fairfield University, 5 Conn. App. 118, 497 A.2d 77 (1985), is misplaced. The plaintiff claims that Kuffer-man stands for the proposition that a tenant is not required to provide a landlord with a forwarding address when the landlord knows how to contact the tenant. Kufferman, however, does not stand for that proposition. The Kufferman court addressed whether the trial court improperly awarded a tenant double the security deposit under § 47a-21. The issue of whether a tenant has to provide a forwarding address to a landlord to seek double the security deposit as damages was not at issue in Kufferman. Accordingly, in this case, because the plaintiff did not provide the defendant with a forwarding address, as is required by the clear language of § 47a-21, the court properly granted the defendant’s motion to strike in regard to the claim for double damages.
