How can I learn more about Connecticut's criminal laws?
Connecticut's criminal laws are contained in an official compendium of the state's laws called the "General Statutes of Connecticut." The multi-volume set, published by the state, is updated every two years to incorporate the new laws and revisions enacted by the General Assembly. The General Statutes are available at most public libraries across the state, or can be accessed by following this link.
Reported cases, which also affect the law of the state, can be found in public law libraries throughout the state or at the State Law Library in Hartford. Some reported decisions may also be found on the internet. For opinions from the Connecticut Supreme Court and the Connecticut Appellate Court, visit the Judicial Branch website.
