Pat Scully over at the Hanging Shad is reporting tonight that state Sen. Eric Coleman of Bloomfield and state Rep. Gerald Fox of Stamford will take the reins of the legislature's powerful judiciary committee.
The two Democratic lawmakers will succeed former chairs Andrew McDonald and Michael Lawlor, who have stepped down to take jobs with the Malloy administration.
Scully also reports that committee leadership appointment will be made this week, perhaps beginning as early as tomorrow.
