Oral history interview with John J. Woodcock, III recorded 2008 June 30

John J. Woodcock III – Interview conducted on June 30, 2008 by Dr. Jerold Duquette with John J. Woodcock III of West Hartford, Connecticut. Woodcock, as a Connecticut State Representative from South Windsor, was the proponent of the first "Lemon Law" enacted in the United States. This legislation, signed into law by Governor William A. O’Neill in 1982, served as a model for adoption by virtually every other state in the union. Woodcock also successfully sponsored “Lemon Law II” which significantly revised the Lemon Law’s arbitration process
