Vocational Expert in Stamford, CT

For Fairfield County the Connecticut Superior Court sits by judicial district rather than by county: the Judicial Branch's directory lists thirteen judicial districts, among them the Stamford-Norwalk Judicial District (the Superior Court, Stamford/Norwalk Judicial District, as its courthouse page spells the district), whose courthouse the Branch places in Stamford, where the same page lists housing matters for Stamford/Norwalk and, as a separate Stamford facility, Geographical Area 1 at Stamford. The Bridgeport Judicial District, with Geographical Area 2 at Bridgeport, and the Danbury Judicial District, with Geographical Area 3 at Danbury, sit in the county as well. The Branch's filing guidance states that a civil case between Connecticut residents is filed in the judicial district where the plaintiff or the defendant resides, with the exceptions it notes. Most appeals from the Superior Court go first to the Connecticut Appellate Court, which the Supreme Court's own overview names as Connecticut's intermediate court of appeals, and the Connecticut Supreme Court is the state's highest court, deciding issues of law rather than questions of fact; the Judicial Branch places both in Hartford.
