Overview: Where the father was a competent parent but where it was in the child's best interests under N.J. Stat.

It was improper to hold the father responsible for the mother's shortcomings.

Notte v. Merchs. Mut. Ins. Co., A-19 September Term 2005, SUPREME COURT OF NEW JERSEY, January 12, 2006, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Because a supervisor's N.J. Ct. R. 4:9-1 amended claims merely relabeled conduct that had already been pleaded, the employer and insurer were not prejudiced thereby, and, pursuant to N.J. Ct. R. 4:9-3, the claims would relate back to the original complaint if they were not waived under N.J. Stat. Ann. § 34:19-8.

State v. Nesbitt, A-114 September Term 2004, SUPREME COURT OF NEW JERSEY, January 12, 2006, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Although a hypothetical question improperly relied on terminology from N.J. Stat. Ann. §§ 2C:35-5(a)(1), 2C:2-6, it did not refer to defendant by name and did not ask for an opinion as to his guilt; therefore, pursuant to N.J. R. Evid. 702, 704, the expert could testify about methods used by confederates in street-level drug sales.

View this case - free  

Overview: An administrative board erred in denying a police officer's application for accidental disability benefits under N.J. Stat.

View this case - free  

Overview: A workers' compensation judge erred in finding that an insurer violated N.J. Stat.

View this case - free  

Overview: A father was not entitled to a suspended judgment in a child abuse case, under N.J. Stat.

View this case - free  

Overview: A religious services organization did not lose its tax-exemption on a building and parking lot it leased to the United States Post Office because the intent of the legislature with regard to N.J.

Loigman v. Twp. Comm., A-99 September Term 2004, SUPREME COURT OF NEW JERSEY, January 18, 2006, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: The litigation privilege applied to the filing of a spurious sequestration motion on the part of a township's attorney; therefore, a judgment in favor of a community activist with regard to his 42 U.S.C.S. § 1983 claim, after essentially being sequestered from a public hearing, was reversed as the township and its counsel were absolutely immune.
