Can you trust Connecticut’s digital court records? After 20 years as a litigant and ADA advocate, my answer is no.
The “No Attorney of Record” Problem
The Writ Summons form has a dedicated field: “Individual Attorney Name.” In case after case, it is left blank. No individual attorney of record ever files an appearance only a firm registration (Type F), with no identifiable person (Type A). Search the Judicial Branch Attorney Lookup for that firm today, and in many cases it returns: “No Records Found.”
No individual attorney means no one to hold accountable. No one to answer for defective service. No one to sanction for robo-signing, forgeries, fabricated documents, and misconduct.
No attorney present in court representing the plaintiff. Just smoke and mirrors — lawyer arguments with no witness testimony, no evidentiary hearings, no due process.
Individual appearances never filed. Attorney of record violations never cured across probate appeals, family court, foreclosure, and housing court.
Search for the firm years later: “No Records Found.”
A firm that doesn’t exist can’t be held accountable. A 2024 firm entity creation doesn’t cure a 2015 attorney-of-record defect.
The Public Access Failure
December 23, 2025: I tried to observe a hearing via the Judicial Branch’s YouTube livestream. It failed repeatedly. Only 50% was discernible. The court proceeded anyway.
The Sixth Amendment guarantees open courts. When technology fails, and proceedings continue, constitutional rights are violated.
The Hidden Oversight
The Judicial Branch website hides its oversight committees’ archive links in HTML code, including the Public Trust Task Force, Public Trust Commission, Advisory Commission on Wrongful Convictions, Judicial Performance Evaluation Program, and Americans with Disabilities Committee, among many others.
The pages exist. Only the public paths were severed.
The irony: an ADA-bound entity hiding its own ADA oversight body.
Why This Matters
These aren’t glitches. They’re design choices that favor insiders. Ordinary families bear the cost.
When records can’t be verified, rights can’t be protected.
Tomorrow: We start giving receipts. 20 years of documented patterns of omissions, concealment, law and rule violations, and damages caused by private and public entities to the public: children, the elderly, individuals with disabilities, minority groups, and many, many others.
In some cases, a pre-status conference meeting. Private conversation between the judge and a law firm member before hearings. No witnesses present. No attorney of record filed in the case. Connecticut Code of Judicial Conduct, Rule 2.9, bars a judge from initiating, permitting, or considering ex parte communications about a pending or impending matter. Then the judge rules in favor of the law firm…
