Overview: In a landlord-tenant eviction matter involving rent regulated housing, a trial court judge erred by concluding that the Tenant Reprisal Act, N.J.S.A. §§ 2A:42-10.10 to -10.14, was preempted by federal law after determining that the eviction was retaliatory. As a result, the eviction of the tenants was set aside.

Overview: When a settlor's son was income beneficiary of her trust, with the remainder going to his "issue," his stepchild, whom he adopted when she was an adult, was not entitled to part of the remainder because, as an adult adoptee, she could not inherit from a stranger to her adoption, and the concept of equitable adoption did not apply to adult adoptees.

Overview: The discipline of a prisoner, who tested positive for drugs upon his return to a State prison after escaping, for violating N.J.A.C. 10A:4-4.1, was upheld because under N.J.S.A. § 30:1B-3 and N.J.S.A. § 30:4-91.3, the Commissioner of Corrections maintained authority over any committed person, even when they were physically outside prison walls.
