- State v. William Hill (087840) (Hudson County & Statewide) A-41-22 Supreme Jan. 18, 2024 Oral Argument A-41-22 A-41-22 Audio for A-41-22 Close Summary A-41-22 N.J.S.A. 2C:28-5(a) is not unconstitutionally overbroad. It may, however, have been unconstitutionally applied to defendant in this case. The Court therefore vacates defendant’s witness tampering conviction, without dismissing any portion of the indictment, and remands the case for a new trial on that charge. The Court does not vacate defendant’s conviction for carjacking. Close

- IN THE MATTER OF THE APPOINTMENT OF THE COUNCIL ON AFFORDABLE HOUSING BY GOVERNOR PHILIP MURPHY (NEW JERSEY COUNCIL ON AFFORDABLE HOUSING) A-0050-22 Appellate Jan. 23, 2024 Summary A-0050-22 In this appeal, the court considers whether the Governor can be compelled by mandamus to act on an appointment power when the statute at issue neither expressly requires, nor provides a deadline for, the exercise of that discretionary function. Seventeen municipalities challenge the Governor Murphy's inaction, demanding he fill long-standing vacancies on the Council on Affordable Housing (COAH). The court rejects appellants' contentions that the Fair Housing Act (FHA), N.J.S.A. 52:27D-301 to -329, requires the chief of the executive branch to fill those appointments and that Governor Murphy's inaction violates that obligation and undermines the public policy reflected in the FHA. Persuaded by the Governor's responding argument, this court held it cannot compel the Chief Executive to make appointments to COAH because mandamus – the relief appellants seek – cannot be applied against the Governor, generally. Further, even if mandamus were applicable to the Governor, the remedy is unavailable here because appellants seek to compel an exercise of discretion. The court thus held the Governor cannot be compelled by mandamus to fill COAH's vacancies. Accordingly, the court dismissed the appeal. Close
