JUDGMENTS 2D
Generally
Conn.App.2002. Cit. generally in cases quot. in sup. and in ftn. Members of the public sued municipal
corporation that owned a beach, alleging that defendant interfered with the public's right to freely access
the beach by erecting a fence monitored by security and charging fees to enter and use the beach in
violation of a 1953 judgment that third parties had obtained against defendant. Following a bench trial,
the trial court found in favor of plaintiffs, ruling that the judgment, which concluded that the beach had
been dedicated for public use, precluded defendant from restricting free public access and use of the
beach. Affirming, this court held that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in exercising its equitable
powers to protect the integrity of the judgment. In making its decision, the court noted that an action to
enforce a prior judgment was the consequence of the doctrine of merger, and that Connecticut's res
judicata rules were derived from the theory of merger set forth in the Restatement Second of Judgments.
Tracey v. Miami Beach Association, 288 A.3d 629, 641, 642.
D.C.App.2023. Cit. in case cit. in sup. Trustee of an art trust sought enforcement of a California state-
court judgment that required gallery to return a contingent gift of artwork and cash to the trust after it
failed to comply with the conditions of the gift. The trial court denied gallery's motion for relief from
enforcement of a foreign judgment, in which it argued, among other things, that the California state
court lacked jurisdiction to issue the order. This court affirmed, holding, inter alia, that it was required to
give full faith and credit to the judgment, which had been affirmed by the California court of appeals.
The court cited the Restatement of Judgments and the Restatement Second of Judgments in reasoning
that it was precluded from scrutinizing the trial court's exercise of jurisdiction by the California court of
appeals' affirmance of the judgment. Corcoran Gallery of Art v. Petty, 291 A.3d 217, 226.
