Twenty-seven judicial marshals are scheduled to graduate on
Tuesday, July 20, 2004,
bringing to 54 the number of judicial marshals who have
graduated since last month, when another class of 27 graduated.
The ceremony will start at
2 p.m. in the Supreme Court courtroom,
located at 231 Capitol Ave. in Hartford, and last an
hour.
"We are very pleased that these
talented men and women have chosen to become judicial marshals
for the Connecticut Judicial Branch," Chief Court Administrator
Joseph H. Pellegrino said. "When members of the public enter the
courthouse, the first person they typically see is a judicial
marshal. While marshals are entrusted with ensuring public
safety, they also help determine how the public views our
judicial system. In short, their role is critical to our
mission."
The graduates are distributed
among seven judicial districts; nine will report to the Hartford
Judicial District. Other judicial districts receiving judicial
marshals are: New Haven, five; Waterbury, four; Danbury, three;
Stamford-Norwalk, three; Fairfield, two; and Ansonia-Milford,
one.
Judicial marshals became part of
the Judicial Branch in December 2000, when the responsibility
for court security, custody of prisoners and prisoner
transportation was transferred to the Branch. Candidates for the
job must pass a physical exam and agility screening, a drug
screen, and a criminal background check. They then must complete
a six-week training program at the Judicial Marshal Academy in
New Britain.
