After speaking at the recent annual meeting of the Connecticut Bar Association, I stuck around to hear Connecticut Supreme Court Chief Justice Chase Rogers deliver the luncheon address.
Chief Justice Rogers is still relatively new to the role, having taken the helm little more than one year ago, but so far, she impresses. Her court has stirred no upsets and issued no questionable or controversial rulings. Indeed, Rogers has led a unanimous court in several high-profile and important cases, criminal and civil. While unanimity does not ordinarily mean anything, it means something – to the bar and the public – in those cases where the underlying facts and legal issues test jurists’ fortitude to withstand the temptation to bend doctrine or spin precedent to achieve a personally gratifying outcome. With several such cases, the Rogers court has been tested and passed with high marks from the bar.
