Anthony Caruso lived in Mohican Historic Housing from 1998 to 2001, when he died. The Mohican Historic Housing Association was aware Margherita Del Core was Caruso’s next of kin, his sister. Although Mohican had been informed that Del Core was Caruso’s next of kin, it did not respond to efforts by the hospital to obtain that information after his death. In the absence of that information, the hospital arranged for Caruso’s burial in a pau- per’s grave. Four months later, Mohican informed Del Core of the death. Del Core filed suit against Mohican for, among other things, inflicting extreme emotional distress upon her by not informing her in a timely manner about her brother’s death so that she could have arranged a proper funeral. The trial court granted Mohican’s motion to dismiss, and Del Core appealed. Is Mohican liable for an intentional infliction of emotional distress? Should Mohican have informed Del Core sooner regarding her brother’s death? [Del Core v. Mohican Historic Housing Assocs. 81 Conn. App. 120 (2004).]
