High Court Returns to Old Home


THE last time the State Supreme Court sat in the Old Statehouse, the Boston Red Caps had just won a National League pennant and work was just about done on the new $2.5 million Capitol.

THE last time the State Supreme Court sat in the Old Statehouse, the Boston Red Caps had just won a National League pennant and work was just about done on the new $2.5 million Capitol.

That was in 1879, when the court moved from downtown Hartford to the elaborate Capitol overlooking Bushnell Park.

Last Tuesday, the seven-member court held session in its former home, the Senate chamber of the Old Statehouse. Since 1986, the court has held sessions around the state to give citizens a chance to watch the justices at work.

After brief remarks by Gov. William A. O’Neill and Chief Justice Ellen A. Peters, the court heard arguments in three cases. The first, Burns v. Barrett, was a freedom-of-speech case pitting the Transportation Commissioner, J. William Burns, against Barrett Outdoor Communications. A Superior Court judge had ruled that Barrett had violated laws when it put up billboards in East Haven. The state’s highest court is to rule this year whether that ruling violated the right to free speech.
