The state Judicial Branch has announced a “first round” of courthouse closures deemed necessary to help account for a $77 million reduction in the court system’s budget for the upcoming 2016-17 fiscal year.
Officials plan to close the Judicial District courthouse in Willimantic along with three juvenile court facilities in Danbury, Torrington and Stamford, according to Rhonda Stearley-Hebert, a Judicial Branch spokeswoman. Officials noted the Stamford Judicial District courthouse on Hoyt Street in Stamford, where one of the juvenile courts is located, will remain open, and all other court business will continue to be heard.
