  The Judicial Branch has created a Legal Notices page on the Judicial Branch website for orders of notice by publication issued by the court in civil and family cases. This new web page will be available January 2, 2020.
  Historically, such notices have been ordered to be published in a newspaper. The new Legal Notices webpage will allow parties, when ordered by the court, to send their orders of notice to the Judicial Branch for publication on the Judicial Branch’s website at no cost. Names published on the Legal Notices webpage will be searchable online. It is expected that this will save a great deal of time and expense, and provide greater accuracy and broader notice than newspaper publication.
  FAQs for Legal Notice by Publication are available here. Questions may be sent to LegalNotice@jud.ct.gov.
