  • DCPP VS. A.P., L.R., T.C., AND J.P., IN THE MATTER OF D.P. AND T.R. (FN-13-0151-19, MONMOUTH COUNTY AND STATEWIDE) (RECORD IMPOUNDED) A-3514-21 Appellate May 4, 2023 Summary A-3514-21 Defendant appeals an order entered in the Family Part permitting the Division of Child Protection and Permanency to use expunged records obtained from the Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office in a Title 9 litigation concerning the alleged abuse and neglect of his son.  Defendant argues the trial court erred by authorizing the Division to utilize records that were expunged, sealed automatically, and precluded any subsequent use.  We conclude the Division was permitted to use the expunged records pursuant to N.J.S.A. 2C:52-19 because the statute allows the release and use of expunged records upon good cause shown and affirm.

  • State v. Joao C. Torres (086812) (Middlesex County & Statewide) A-15-22 Supreme May 4, 2023 Oral Argument A-15-22 A-15-22 Audio for A-15-22 Close Summary A-15-22 The Court endorses and applies the two-factor test of State v. Lentz , 463 N.J. Super. 54, 70 (App. Div. 2020), authorizing delayed warrantless searches of a person incident to that person’s arrest so long as both (1) the delay itself and (2) the scope of the search were objectively reasonable. The totality of circumstances here establishes such reasonableness, particularly given the officers’ observation and video footage showing that defendant appeared to be removing some substance from his fingers and rubbing his clothing while he was being interviewed, as well as the risk that biological evidence would dissipate during the delay while the warrant application was processed.

City of Long Branch LOCAL PROPERTY TAX Tax Court:  Levy v. City of Long Branch, Docket No. 000448-2021, opinion by Sundar, P.J.T.C., decided May 5, 2023.  For plaintiff - Michael I. Schneck (Schneck Law Group, LLC, attorney) and Robert E. Spiotti (Spiotti & Associates, PC, attorney); for defendant – Shaun Peterson (Hoagland, Longo, Moran, Dunst & Doukas, LLP, attorney). Held: Parties reached a global settlement agreement as to plaintiff’s complaint in the Tax Court for tax year 2021 and his petition before the county board of taxation for tax year 2022. The stipulation in the Tax Court matter was silent on the Freeze Act’s application. The stipulation in the County Board matter included plaintiff’s express waiver of the Freeze Act. Based on the four corners of the Tax Court stipulation, the court found that plaintiff did not waive application of the Freeze Act in the Tax Court matter.  Based on the record, the court found that plaintiff’s waiver of the Freeze Act in the County Board matter did not extend to, nor would be implied in settlement of the Tax Court matter. The court was unpersuaded that the only base year in a multi-year settlement must be the last year of the value judgment. The court was also unpersuaded that, without more, the County Board’s judgment is proof of a change in value for Freeze Act purposes.   The court granted plaintiff’s motion for application of the Freeze Act to tax year 2023 based on the Tax Court’s final value judgment for tax year 2021.
