Conn. Practice Book § 18-15 — Costs where Both Legal and Equitable Issues

Where legal and equitable matters or claims for relief arising out of the same transaction or transactions connected with the same subject of action are joined in the same complaint, or where any pleading setting forth a matter which, before January 1, 1980, would have been cognizable only at law is met by setting up some equitable matter, either by itself or in connection with a legal defense, the costs upon the whole case shall be at the discretion of the judicial authority; but where legal and equitable causes of action which are wholly unconnected with each other are joined in the same complaint, the costs upon the judgment on the equitable causes of action only shall be discretionary.
