Conn. Gen. Stat. § 45a-78: (Formerly Sec. 45-4f). Rules of procedure for the Probate Courts. Adoption, publication and sale.

(a) The Probate Court Administrator shall, from time to time, recommend to the judges of the Supreme Court, for adoption and promulgation, uniform rules of procedure in the Probate Courts. Any rules of procedure so adopted and promulgated shall be mandatory upon all Probate Courts. To assist the Probate Court Administrator in formulating such recommendations, the Probate Court Administrator shall meet with the Probate Assembly at least annually, and may meet with members of the bar of this state and with the general public. The Probate Court Administrator shall designate no fewer than three Probate Court judges who shall hold a public hearing after reasonable notice is given in the Connecticut Law Journal and otherwise as the Probate Court Administrator deems proper, on any proposed new rule or any change in an existing rule before it is presented to the judges of the Supreme Court for adoption and promulgation.

(b) The Probate Court Administrator shall, from time to time, publish the rules of procedure for the Probate Courts. The Probate Court Administrator may pay the expenses of publication from the fund established under section 45a-82 and shall sell the book of Probate Court rules of procedure, at a price determined by the Probate Court Administrator. The proceeds from the sales shall be added to and shall become a part of said fund.
