The Connecticut Appellate Court will hear arguments in two cases on Tuesday, March 10, at Greenwich High School, 10 Hillside Rd.
The visit is part of the Appellate Court’s “On Circuit” program, which provides students, educators and the public with a greater understanding of appellate courts. Since the program began in 1996, the court has heard arguments at several high school and higher education locations.
The first argument will start at 1:15 p.m., the second, at 2:15 p.m. They both will be heard in the school’s Performing Arts Center. Arguments for each case should last approximately 40 minutes. A 20-minute question-and-answer period with counsel from the case, students and faculty will follow each argument. Appellate Court Chief Judge Alexandra D. DiPentima, Judge Ingrid L. Moll and Judge Robert J. Devlin Jr. will hear arguments in both cases.
The 1:15 p.m. case is State of Connecticut v. Charles J. Ingala, a search-and-seizure case from the Geographical Area Courthouse No. 4 in Waterbury. The 2:15 p.m. case is Tina M. Carrico v. Mill Rock Leasing LLC et al., a slip-and-fall case from the New London Judicial District.
The arguments are open to the public. News media organizations may record, broadcast, televise or photograph the arguments in accordance with Section 70-9 of the Connecticut Practice Book and the Court’s protocol.
