HB 6503 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF PROCEDURES TO IMPROVE THE HANDLING OF MATTERS IN THE FAMILY COURT SYSTEM.

HB 6503 requires specific procedural changes in family court cases to improve efficiency. It mandates that courts schedule status conferences within 10 business days of a request, review and approve legal fees, and require parties to report financial changes (like new jobs or income) in writing within two weeks. Parties must also disclose these changes to the other side, and attorney fees will be calculated based on the percentage difference in each party's adjusted gross income from their last IRS filing. This bill directly affects individuals involved in family court cases (such as divorce, custody, or support matters), their attorneys, and the courts handling these cases.
