The defendants’ petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 19 Conn. App. 223, is granted, limited to the following issues: “1. In a tort action,, does the collateral source rule apply to proceeds received by the plaintiff which are not payments in compensation for the plaintiff’s injury or loss? “2.
