Dear Attorneys,
My attorney told me that the judges in the Connecticut courts rotate around Labor Day. Is this true? Will it have any impact on my case?
Sincerely,
Rotation Rooter
Dear Rotation,
Yes, in general, the yearly assignments Connecticut judges go into effect around Labor Day each year. Not every judge in the state will switch courthouses, but many do. This may mean that the court in which your matter is pending will get a new presiding judge. It may or may not impact your case. One way in which it can is that a presiding judge may want certain things to be handled, or scheduled differently, so there is a chance you may get a new or different court date. A different judge may also want to keep closer tabs on some cases, or may try to move matters along more quickly. Overall, you should not be concerned about a large impact as most parties deal with this judicial “change over” during their family law matter.
If you do have additional questions, you should seek the advice of counsel. Wolf & Shore Law Group is here to make your family law matter easier, not harder. Ever argue with a woman? Let Wolf & Shore Law Group go to work for you. Call us at 203.745.3151 or email us at info@wolfandshorelaw.com.
