What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Connecticut

I need to know if a recorded conversation (in person, not telephone) is admissible as evidence in Connecticut with the consent of only one party, but in a public place. This conversation takes place between the two parties in a dispute, not between law enforcement or other governmental agency. Any help with this matter would be greatly appreciated.

It is outright illegal to record conversations in CT without the knowledge of all parties involved and it's fairly rigorously enforced. You're opening yourself up to criminal prosecution. While I'm not up on CT civil procedure, I suspect highly that illegally made recordings like this are likely to be inadmissible.
