Connecticut Court Records
The Connecticut Courts website is designed to help the public understand the CT judicial system. It identifies the state’s courts and describes their roles and jurisdiction. In addition, it describes the hierarchy in the judicial system, from trial-level courts, such as the Superior Court and the Probate Courts, to the Connecticut Supreme Court, the state’s highest appellate court.
Under the Connecticut Freedom of Information Act, Connecticut Courts grant public access to various court records, including initiating documents, case files, transcripts, and decrees. The state law also outlines the citizen’s right to view, review, and copy records in the custody of local and state-level government agencies. This website offers general guidance to help the public locate and access Connecticut Public Records where permitted, but it has no affiliation with government agencies and does not provide legal advice.
