CT LAW TRIBUNE REPORTS THAT REP. GERALD FOX LEAVING THE LEGISLATURE, SEN. COLEMAN NOT FAR BEHIND!

This just in from the CT Law Tribune:

"The Judiciary Committee is clearly the legislative panel that has the greatest impact on Connecticut lawyers, with its duties ranging from confirming judicial nominations to holding hearings on cutting-edge legal issues ranging from criminal sentencing issues to family law reform.

It now appears that there will be a major shake-up in the leadership of the committee, as the House co-chair, Rep. Gerald Fox III announced on Thursday, May 22 that he will not run for re-election to the legislature. Instead, the Stamford attorney will campaign for Stamford probate judge, a position currently held by his father.
 
Meanwhile, the Senate co-chair, Eric Coleman, lost the Democratic nomination for his seat earlier this week. In a hotly contested party convention for the 2nd District Senate seat, Coleman, of Bloomfield, was defeated by Hartford City Council President Shawn Wooden, a partner at Day Pitney. Coleman has indicated he plans to run a primary campaign against Wooten."
