Lamont Nominates Danbury Resident For CT Superior Court

DANBURY, CT — Gov. Ned Lamont today has announced that he is nominating a Danbury resident to fill one of 22 vacancies as judges on the Connecticut Superior Court. The court currently has 59 vacancies.

Lamont gave the nod to Wendy Grispin, 55,, on Thursday. Grispin graduated from Western Connecticut State University and obtained her Juris Doctor degree from Pace University School of Law. She is currently a member of Grispin & Chan, LLC. She has been practicing law since 1993 and has devoted her practice entirely to litigation matters. Her primary practice areas include criminal (adult and juvenile), personal injury, and family law (divorce, custody, and parenting) matters. She has been a member of the Statewide Grievance Committee since 2018, served as an attorney trial referee and judicial fact finder since 2014, and as a special master since 2007.

“Our court system works the best when it reflects the diversity, experience, and understanding of the people who live here,” Governor Lamont said. “These men and women that I’ve selected to become judges not only have the competence, skills, and proficiency to serve the court with integrity, but come from a variety of backgrounds that provide them with the important shared experiences of the people who will come before them. These nominees have the qualifications that meet the high standards the residents of Connecticut deserve on the bench.”

The nominations are being forwarded to the Connecticut General Assembly for its consideration.
