Conn. Practice Book § 30a-2 (2026)

Sec. 30a-2 conference. At the pretrial, the parties may agree that a substitute information will be filed, or that certain charges will be nolled or dismissed. If the child or youth and parent or guardian subse- quently execute a written statement of responsibil- ity at the pretrial conference, or the attorney for the child or youth conveys to the prosecutor an agreement on the adjudicatory grounds, a predis- positional study shall be compiled by the probation department and the case shall be assigned for a plea and dispositional hearing. (b) If a plea agreement has been reached by the parties which contemplates the entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere in a delinquency case, and the recommendation of a particular disposi- tion, the agreement shall be disclosed in open court at the time the plea is offered. Thereupon the judicial authority may accept or reject any agreement, or may defer the decision on accep- tance or rejection of the agreement until it has had an opportunity to review the predisposi- tional study. (Adopted June 24, 2002, to take effect Jan. 1, 2003; amended June 13, 2014, to take effect Jan. 1, 2015; amended June 11, 2021, to take effect Jan. 1, 2022.)
