Opinion of the Court
The defendant’s petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 30 Conn. App. 523 (AC 10884), is granted, limited to the following issue:
“Did the Appellate Court, in approving the trial court’s failure to instruct on the state’s burden to disprove the defense of consent beyond a reasonable doubt in a sexual assault case where consent was the only issue, deprive the defendant of his constitutional right to establish a defense?”
