We consider paraorthogonal polynomials P_n on the unit circle defined by
random recurrence (Verblunsky) coefficients. Their zeros are exactly
the eigenvalues of a special class of random unitary matrices (random CMV
matrices). We prove that the local statistical distribution of these zeros
converges to a Poisson distribution. This means that, for large n, there
is no local correlation between the zeros of the random polynomials P_n.
