Justice of the Peace

Term January 6, 2025 to January 2, 2029

Acting under authority granted by the Connecticut General Statutes, Justices of the Peace have general oath giving powers, may take acknowledgments, may join persons in marriage and may take depositions. There are many other statutory grants of power regarding specific documents. The General Statutes (Section 9-183a-c) prescribe the manner in which Justices of the Peace are selected and prescribes the total number of Justices to which a town is entitled. Avon has eighteen Justices who are selected during the year of a Presidential election and serve a four-year term.

Justices of the Peace are endorsed according to political party rules or appointed by the Town Clerk.
