    05/18/21 -- STATEMENT FROM CHIEF COURT ADMINSTRATOR PATRICK L. CARROLL III
                       RE: RESUMPTION OF JURY TRIALS IN STATE COURTS


    Fifteen months ago, the COVID-19 pandemic prompted the suspension of jury trials. Now, with the virtual elimination of pandemic-related public health restrictions by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Governor, the broad availability of COVID-19 vaccinations, the encouraging reduction of statewide COVID positivity rates, enhanced sanitization and ventilation protocols and procedures within our buildings, and the retrofitting of Judicial Branch facilities to provide the highest level of health and safety protection for prospective jurors, employees and other stakeholders, the time has come for us to restore the essential and fundamental component of our system of justice - the right to a trial by jury.

    Accordingly, by direction of the Chief Justice, the Judicial Branch will resume summoning jurors to courthouses throughout the state to restart the jury trial process as of June 1, 2021. As we have done since the beginning of the pandemic, we are undertaking this jury resumption initiative in continuing consultation with Connecticut public health officials and in compliance with directives from the Governor.

    We remain committed to assuring that all of our facilities are safe places within which to summon jurors and conduct jury trials. With that goal in mind, we have dispatched our personnel to re-inspect all of our buildings and courtrooms where trials will be held to assure that all appropriate protective measures are in place. Chief Clerks and Chief Judicial Marshals are meeting with their respective staff members to assure that safe, efficient and courteous procedures are in place to welcome and screen prospective jurors into our courthouses. Among other precautions we are taking, we will have ample supplies of personal protective equipment (PPE) for distribution to jurors, litigants, witnesses and others who may request such PPE. Hand sanitization stations will be visible and available throughout our facilities. Protective microphone coverings will be available in each courtroom. Face shields will be available, as needed, for witnesses as they testify to assure that facial expressions may be observed and assessed during testimony. At least in the initial stages of the jury resumption initiative, the plans to hold jurors and conduct jury deliberations in a courtroom adjacent to the courtroom where the trial is being held will remain in place. Naturally, the trial judges will also have the flexibility to order additional measures as the judge deems necessary to address concerns expressed by jurors or litigants during the proceedings.

    Through this process, we will take every step necessary to assure jurors, counsel, litigants and staff that their safety remains our primary concern and that we have taken, and will continue to take, all appropriate steps necessary to assure that safety.

    12/17/19 -- Electronic Publication of Orders of Notice in Civil and Family Cases
    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.
