Connecticut Chief Justice Chase Rogers braced state Judicial Branch workers for layoffs, saying that “the budget cuts we face are simply too large” to avoid workforce reductions in the court system. In an email sent April 13 to Judicial Branch employees, Rogers said “initial” layoff notices will be delivered April 14 and that the layoffs will take effect June 24.
Rogers did not say how many employees would be let go. “The staff reductions and the expected budget cuts will change how and where the Judicial Branch conducts its business,” Rogers wrote. “We are currently developing plans to close courthouses and offices, and to consolidate the staff and operations into other locations. To leverage our reduced workforce, we will be realigning and transferring the court business being conducted in some court locations to other court locations.”
