- JERSEY CITY UNITED AGAINST THE NEW WARD MAP, ET AL. VS. JERSEY CITY WARD COMMISSION, ET AL. (L-0960-22 AND L-0821-22, HUDSON COUNTY AND STATEWIDE) A-0356-22/A-0560-22 Appellate March 12, 2024 Summary A-0356-22/A-0560-22 Following the 2020 decennial United States Census, the City of Jersey City Ward Commission (the Commission) redrew the six election wards for the City of Jersey City (the City). In these two consolidated appeals, plaintiffs challenge the ward boundaries and map adopted by the Commission. Plaintiffs contend that the new ward map violates the Municipal Ward Law (the MW Law), N.J.S.A. 40:44-9 to -18, the New Jersey Civil Rights Act (the CR Act), N.J.S.A. 10:6-1 to -2, and their rights of free speech, free association, and equal protection under the New Jersey Constitution. They also argue that the Commission did not comply with the Open Public Meetings Act (the OPMA), N.J.S.A. 10:4-6 to -21. The court affirms in part and reverses in part the dismissal of plaintiffs' complaints in lieu of prerogative writs. The court affirms the dismissal of the claims asserting violations of plaintiffs' constitutional rights, the CR Act, and the OPMA. The court reverses the dismissal of the claims of violations of the MW Law. Resolution of those statutory claims requires some, albeit limited, fact-finding. Therefore, the court remands the MW Law claims for a focused and limited proceeding on whether the Commission had a rational basis for the ward boundaries and map it adopted. Close
