HJ 13 Connecticut House · 2026 Regular Session

RESOLUTION CONFIRMING THE NOMINATION OF THE HONORABLE STEPHANIE A. MCLAUGHLIN OF STAMFORD TO BE A JUDGE OF THE SUPERIOR COURT.

This House Joint Resolution (HJ 13) formally confirms Governor's nomination of Stephanie A. McLaughlin of Stamford to serve as a Superior Court judge for an eight-year term beginning May 3, 2026. It directly affects Judge McLaughlin (who is appointed to the position) and the Superior Court (which gains a new judge). The resolution contains no substantive policy provisions; it merely approves the governor's nomination as required by state procedure. This is a routine confirmation of a judicial appointment, not a new law or policy change.
