From a judgmentsustaining the pleas in abatement

[166 Conn. 113]

     of both defendants, the plaintiff has appealed tothis court. He assigns error to the determinationof the court (DeVita, J.) that the papers actuallyserved on January 20, 1969, constituted an appealtaken after the fifteen-day appeal period, and notan amendment. In view of the disposition ofJohnson v. Zoning Board of Appeals, supra, we findit unnecessary to discuss the issues raised bythis appeal.

Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.
