                           Opinion

   PER CURIAM. The self-represented defendant,
Sergey Sekretaev, appeals from the judgment of strict
foreclosure rendered in favor of the plaintiff, Seminole
Realty, LLC. On appeal, the defendant challenges the
trial court’s determination that the plaintiff had standing
to bring this action, notwithstanding his arguments to
the contrary, and its rejection of his special defenses
and two counts of his three count counterclaim. We
affirm the judgment of the trial court.
   The plaintiff filed its complaint seeking foreclosure
on a residential condominium unit that it built and sold
to the defendant in exchange for a note secured by a
mortgage. The plaintiff alleged that it was the owner
and holder of the note and mortgage. In responding to
the plaintiff’s complaint, the defendant filed an answer,
in which he denied all of the plaintiff’s essential allega-
tions against him, in addition to asserting twelve special
defenses and a three count counterclaim. Over the pro-
tracted history of this case, which spanned more than
four years, the defendant also repeatedly challenged
the plaintiff’s standing to bring this action by filing serial
motions to dismiss. At the time of trial, two of those
jurisdictional challenges remained unresolved.
   Following a trial to the court, at which both parties
introduced several exhibits into evidence, the court
issued a memorandum of decision in which it con-
cluded: (1) on the question of the plaintiff’s standing,
and thus of its own subject matter jurisdiction over the
action, that it had such jurisdiction based upon the
plaintiff’s standing to bring it in its capacity as the owner
and holder of the note and mortgage on which it sought
to foreclose; and (2) on the merits of the action, that
the plaintiff had ‘‘proven by a preponderance of the
evidence that [the] defendant is liable to it upon the
promissory note secured by the mortgage, and that the
defendant’s special defenses . . . are legally inappli-
cable or [not] factually supported by any material evi-
dence. The first and third counts of his counterclaim
are inapplicable. [The] defendant has proven in part the
allegations of the second count thereof and is entitled to
an offset.’’ The court thus rendered judgment of strict
foreclosure in favor of the plaintiff, made the requisite
factual findings, credited the defendant with the offset,
and set the law day according to law.
  After our careful examination of the record, we con-
clude that the court did not err in rejecting the defen-
dant’s jurisdictional challenges to this action, or in
rendering judgment of strict foreclosure in favor of the
plaintiff herein. The trial court issued a thorough and
well reasoned decision regarding the factual and legal
bases for its legal and factual conclusions. It would
serve no useful purpose for this court to repeat the
analysis contained in the trial court’s decision. See Nor-
folk & Dedham Mutual Fire Ins. Co. v. Wysocki, 243
Conn. 239, 241, 702 A.2d 638 (1997). We therefore adopt
the well reasoned decision of the trial court as a proper
statement of the relevant facts, issues, and applicable
law. See Seminole Realty, LLC v. Sekretaev, 162 Conn.
App. 170,     A.3d      (2014) (appendix).
  The judgment is affirmed and the case is remanded
for the purpose of setting a new law day.
