    Barry GRAHAM v. COMMISSIONER OF TRANSPORTATION
    Supreme Court of Connecticut.
    Decided January 11, 2017
    Lorinda S. Coon, in support of the petition.
    The defendant's petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 168 Conn. App. 570, 148 A.3d 1147 (2016), is granted, limited to the following issues:
    "1. Whether the Appellate Court properly concluded that the waiver of sovereign immunity under General Statutes § 13a-144 extends to a claim that the state police were negligent in failing to close the bridge before a Department of Transportation crew could arrive to address the condition?
    "2. Whether the Appellate Court properly imposed a duty on the state to employ 'adequate interim measures,' in place of or in addition to the defendant's duty to remedy a highway defect within a reasonable time under the circumstances after actual or constructive notice?"
