CECARELLI V. MAHER
12 Conn.Supp. 240 (1943)
NATURE OF THE CASE: Cecarelli (P) brought an action against Maher (D) for damages
resulting from a battery.
FACTS: P attended a public dance at the conclusion of which three young ladies requested
him to drive them to their homes. This provoked the anger and wrath of D and his two
companions, who, at a secluded and lonely spot adjacent to the dance hall, set upon P to
administer a severe, and painful beating. Fists and dangerous instruments constituted the
implements of aggressive warfare. P's upper right central and upper right lateral teeth and
roots were severed from their sockets; his upper left central, lower right central, and
lower right lateral teeth were so destroyed as to necessitate ultimate removal; his upper
lip was severely lacerated, requiring sutures and resulting in an involvement of the nasal
septum; his nose and left eye were abrased and contused; and his right arm, right shoulder,
and right side became exceedingly sore and tender as a result of a vicious kicking process.
P required emergency hospital treatment and a complete restoration of the dental structures
with the replacement of five teeth. P was absent from his employment for a complete week,
experiencing acute pain for an extended period after his return to work.
