HJ 53 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

RESOLUTION REMANDING TO THE OFFICE OF THE CLAIMS COMMISSIONER THE CLAIM OF ANDRE DAWSON AGAINST THE STATE FOR WRONGFUL INCARCERATION.

This resolution (HJ 53) sends Andre Dawson’s existing claim for wrongful incarceration back to the Office of the Claims Commissioner for a review of his eligibility to receive compensation. It does not award the previously recommended $1,107,356.76 but directs the Commissioner to determine if Dawson meets the requirements under state law (section 54-102uu). The resolution is procedural and has no immediate fiscal impact, as it only remands the case for further processing. It directly affects Andre Dawson, who claims he was wrongfully incarcerated.
