A Connecticut prosecutor fired last year for secretly photographing and video recording women at the Danbury courthouse is asking a state judge to reinstate his privileges to practice law, saying in a court document that his “disability” has been “removed.”

David Holzbach of Bethel was fired in August 2012 after being caught in a courtroom with a large pen containing a concealed video camera. At the request of the state chief disciplinary counsel, a judge in December revoked Holzbach’s ability to practice law by placing him on indefinite inactive status for violating court rules on cameras.
