Liquidated Damages: A new law was passed in 2008, Conn. Gen. Stat. § 42-150u. 

No provision in a written contract for the purchase or lease of goods or services primarily for personal,
family or household purposes that provides for the payment of liquidated damages in the event of a breach of
the contract shall be enforceable unless (1) the contract contains a statement in boldface type at least
twelve points in size immediately following such liquidated damages provision stating "I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS
CONTRACT CONTAINS A LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION", and (2) the person against whom such provision is to be
enforced signs such person's name or writes such person's initials next to such statement.
