HARTFORD, Conn. — Michelle Troconis’ defense attorney, Jon Schoenhorn, and prosecutors argued again this week over their efforts to disqualify each other from her murder conspiracy case in a dispute over the handling of a contested letter.
The lawyers met privately in Superior Court in Stamford and appeared in court briefly on Wednesday. Judge Gary J. White said he may order a hearing early next year before settling the argument with a ruling about whether prosecutors improperly — if inadvertently — obtained a confidential communication between defense lawyers.
Troconis was living in Farmington with contractor Fotis Dulos in 2019 when he was accused of murdering his estranged wife, Jennifer Farber Dulos, at her home in New Canaan. Her body has never been found, and Dulos committed suicide before he could be tried.
