Connecticut General Statutes Title 31. Labor § 31-237f. Disqualification of board member; challenge; replacements

No member of the board shall participate in the hearing or disposition of any appeal in which such member has any direct or indirect interest. Challenge to the interest of any member of the board may be made by any party to the proceeding and claimed for short calendar, and such challenge shall be decided by the Superior Court. If the challenge is upheld, the administrator shall so advise the Governor. In such a case, the Governor shall assign an alternate member appointed pursuant to section 31-237c, except that the staff assistant shall automatically become acting chairperson of the board in the chairperson's absence. If a replacement for any member of the board is required, the Governor shall appoint a substitute who represents affiliations similar to that of the member being replaced to fill such unexpired term.
