Connecticut governor issues executive order providing protections to renters

State Issues Covid-19 Connecticut

On April 10, the Connecticut governor issued an executive order that, among other things, provides protections for residential renters impacted by Covid-19. For example, renters are provided an automatic 60-day grace period for April rent and, upon request, a 60-day grace period for May rent. In addition, no landlord, or landlord’s representative may deliver notice to evict except in the case of serious nuisance.
