Infraction of statute does not necessarily render deposition inadmissible. 58 C. 495. Deposition is not an exhibit, but testimony in the custody of the clerk until offered in evidence; court did not abuse its discretion in refusing to admit deposition in which plaintiff had been deprived of complete cross-examination. 164 C. 262. Cited. 211 Conn. 555; 229 Conn. 716.
