According to Jay Stapleton of the CT Law Tribune,
"The State budget cut will apparently be felt in the court system.
The Judicial Branch will have its current fiscal year budget cut by $6 million as Gov. Dannel Malloy seeks to close a projected budget shortfall. The spending cuts, formerly known as rescissions, were announced January 23. In all, the governor ordered $31.5 million in cuts, with social service programs, public colleges and universities and state watchdog agencies also taking a hit. The cutbacks affecting more than two dozen state agencies follow $54.6 million in reductions ordered by Malloy in November.
A Judicial Branch spokeswoman said officials are still reviewing the rescission and won't comment on the matter until at least Monday, Feb. 2. Legislative Judiciary Committee leaders did not immediately return emails seeking comment."
