Conn. Practice Book § 10-48 — Express Admissions and Denials To Be Direct and Specific

Express admissions and denials must be direct, precise and specific, and not argumentative, hypothetical or in the alternative. Accordingly, any pleader wishing expressly to admit or deny a portion only of a paragraph must recite that portion; except that where a recited portion of a paragraph has been either admitted or denied, the remainder of the paragraph may be denied or admitted without recital. Admissions or denials of allegations identified only by a summary or generalization thereof, or by describing the facts alleged as "consistent" or "inconsistent" with other facts recited or referred to, are improper.
