Connecticut Newspaper Story Describes Deposition of Secretary of State

The Day, the newspaper of New London, Connecticut, has this interesting account of the testimony given by Secretary of State Susan Bysiewicz, in the pending lawsuit over her qualifications to be Attorney General. A state law says candidates for Attorney General must have been engaged in the active practice of law for the previous ten years. Bysiewicz is an attorney, and she is running for Attorney General. The lawsuit concerns whether she meets the statutory requirement. Another issue in the case is whether the state law violates the State Constitution, because the statute appears to add to the Constitutional qualifications.

  1. I am currently petitioning to run for Secretary of the State in CT. If I serve three terms will I have practiced law for 12 years and now be eligible to run for Attorney General?
