by Zigadto, Janet

 

Pursuant to Connecticut Public Act 25-91, the towns of Avon, Burlington, Canton, Farmington, Granby and Simsbury will be transferred from their present judicial districts to the Judicial District of Litchfield at Torrington. This change takes effect on October 1, 2025. Section 15 of the public act changes Connecticut General Statute section 51-344, which is entitled "Judicial Districts established". Section 16 of the public act changes Connecticut General Statute section 51-345, which deals with venue in civil actions and housing matters and return of civil process . The Jury Administration page states "beginning October 1, 2025, individuals summoned for jury service from the towns of Avon, Burlington, Canton, Farmington, Granby, and Simsbury will now report to the Torrington courthouse as they will now be part of the Litchfield Judicial District."
