The Connecticut Supreme Court has summoned a judge to explain why she has been absent from the bench for more than two years while collecting more than $350,000 in salary.
Connecticut Chief State’s Attorney Richard Colangelo Jr. will retire effective March 31 in the wake of an independent investigation that questioned his credibility and raised ethical concerns about his decision to hire the daughter of a former state deputy budget director.
A report of that investigation, written by attorney Stanley A. Twardy Jr. of the Day Pitney law firm, was released last week.
