(L-8102-20, MIDDLESEX COUNTY AND STATEWIDE) A-0110-22 Appellate Feb. 27, 2023 Summary A-0110-22 This appeal raises the novel issue of whether the statutory bar set forth in N.J.S.A. 39:6A-4.5(a) precludes plaintiff's wrongful death and survivor claims stemming from the second of two separate motor vehicle accidents occurring a half hour apart at the same location, the latter of which resulted in the death of the uninsured driver as he attempted to retrieve a cell phone from his disabled vehicle. In considering this question, the court addressed whether decedent was "operating" his uninsured vehicle at the time of the second accident for the purposes of N.J.S.A. 39:6A-4.5(a). The court further distinguished Perrelli v. Pastorelle , where the Supreme Court determined the statutory bar to recovering damages under N.J.S.A. 39:6A-4.5(a) applied to the owner of an uninsured vehicle, even where the owner was injured while a passenger in the vehicle. 206 N.J. 193, 208 (2011). The court ultimately concluded the statutory bar pursuant to N.J.S.A. 39:6A-4.5(a) was not implicated because decedent was not operating his vehicle. Close

- MORRIS PROPERTIES, INC., ET AL. VS. JONATHAN WHEELER, ET AL. (L-0238-19, ATLANTIC COUNTY AND STATEWIDE) previously filed on February 28, 2023 A-2653-20 Appellate Aug. 22, 2023 Summary A-2653-20 In this legal-malpractice case, the corporate plaintiff and its president appeal from an order granting defendants' summary-judgment motion. The trial court found plaintiffs' expert had failed to analyze how defendants' alleged breaches of the standard of care would have impacted a potential jury verdict or settlement and had not opined that defendants' alleged malpractice proximately caused any damages. The judge also dismissed the president's individual claim because the undisputed facts showed she and defendants did not have an attorney-client relationship. The court affirms, holding plaintiffs had not established proximate cause as a matter of law and that expert testimony was necessary in this case to prove proximate causation and damages. With respect to the president's individual claim of legal malpractice, the court holds she failed to demonstrate the existence of an attorney-client relationship between herself and defendants. Close
