Gov. Ned Lamont announced the appointment of a new Connecticut Supreme Court justice Monday afternoon, along with three Appellate Court nominations.
The governor chose Hartford Appellate Court Judge Christine E. Keller to serve on the Connecticut Supreme Court, replacing Justice Richard Palmer, who reached the mandatory age of retirement in May. Lamont selected Superior Court Judge Jose A. Suarez to fill the vacancy left by Keller, and picked two other Superior Court judges to fill Appellate vacancies: Judges Joan Alexander and Melanie Cradle were chosen to take over for retiring Chief Appellate Judge Alexandra DiPentima and fellow retiring Judge Robert Devlin.
With the state's General Assembly out of regular session, the interim appointments are subject to approval by the Judiciary Committee within 45 days.
