Conn. Code Jud. Conduct R. 3.12
Compensation for Extrajudicial Activities
A judge may accept reasonable compensation
for extrajudicial activities permitted by law unless
such acceptance would appear to a reasonable
person to undermine the judge’s independence,
integrity, or impartiality.
History
(Effective Jan. 1, 2011.) COMMENT: (1) A judge is permitted to accept honoraria, stipends, fees, wages, salaries, royalties, or other compensa- tion for speaking, teaching, writing, and other extrajudicial activities, provided the compensation is reasonable and com- mensurate with the task performed. The judge should be mind- ful, however, that judicial duties must take precedence over other activities. See Rule 2.1. (2) Compensation derived from extrajudicial activities may be subject to public reporting. See Rule 3.15.
