Conn. Gen. Stat. § 18-87
The Commissioner of Correction may transfer any inmate of any of the institutions of the Department of Correction to any other appropriate state institution with the concurrence of the superintendent of such institution or to the Court Support Services Division of the Judicial Branch when the Commissioner of Correction finds that the welfare or health of the inmate requires it. When an inmate, after the expiration of his or her sentence, is committed to or otherwise remains in the institution to which he or she was transferred, the expense of his or her treatment and support shall be paid as provided by sections 17b-122, 17b-124 to 17b-132, inclusive, 17b-136 to 17b-138, inclusive, 17b-194 to 17b-197, inclusive, 17b-222 to 17b-250, inclusive, 17b-263, 17b-340 to 17b-350, inclusive, 17b-689b, and 17b-743 to 17b-747, inclusive. No transfer of any person who has attained the age of eighteen years shall be made to the Court Support Services Division of the Judicial Branch. No transfer of any person who has not attained the age of eighteen years shall be made to the Court Support Services Division of the Judicial Branch unless the executive director of the Court Support Services Division of the Judicial Branch finds that such person would benefit from a transfer to the Court Support Services Division of the Judicial Branch and agrees to accept such person and such person has given such person's written consent to such transfer. Such person transferred to the Court Support Services Division of the Judicial Branch shall be deemed to be committed to the custody of the executive director of the Court Support Services Division of the Judicial Branch. The executive director of the Court Support Services Division of the Judicial Branch shall have the power to terminate the commitment and release such person at any time the executive director of the Court Support Services Division of the Judicial Branch determines such termination and release would be in such person's best interest, and shall have the power to return such person to the jurisdiction of the Commissioner of Correction. The transfer of any person under this section to the Court Support Services Division of the Judicial Branch shall not result in the person so transferred being in the custody of the Commissioner of Correction and the executive director of the Court Support Services Division of the Judicial Branch for a total of less than the minimum or more than the maximum term such person would have been in the custody of the Commissioner of Correction had such person not been so transferred.
