Law Enforcement and Administrative Functions (Part 2)

The New Jersey Supreme Court continued in relevant part: The MCPO defendants appealed and the Appellate Division concluded that the Attorney General properly differentiated between law enforcement and administrative functions with respect to the original complaint but erred when not consistently applying that approach to the subsequent complaints. The appellate court found that compliance with […]

The Juvenile Waive Statute and Retroactivity (Part 3)

The New Jersey Supreme Court concluded with the following in relevant part: The Court is unpersuaded by arguments that the statute’s delayed implementation date is likely attributable to the need to collect and report data or to afford time to address the housing of juvenile inmates. There is nothing in Section 26.1 to support that […]

The Juvenile Waive Statute and Retroactivity (Part 2)

Justice Timpone continued in relevant part: On September 18, 2015, the trial court sentenced J.V. in accordance with his plea deal. J.V. appealed, arguing that Section 26.1 should apply to him retroactively because of the ameliorative nature of the new waiver statute and that he therefore was entitled to a new waiver hearing. The Appellate […]

The Juvenile Waive Statute and Retroactivity (Part 1)

On June 11, 2020, the New Jersey Supreme Court decided the Morris County case of State v. J.V. The principal issue under N.J.S.A. 2A:4A-26.1 was whether the new juvenile waiver statute applied retroactively to juveniles who were sentenced before the statute became effective. Justice Timpone wrote for a unanimous Court in relevant part: Seventeen-year-old J.V. […]

Plain View and Lawful Vantage Points (Part 3)

The Court continued in relevant part: The Appellate Division reversed. 461 N.J. Super. 1, 20 (App. Div. 2019). The court explained that, “to satisfy the plain view doctrine when this case was decided, the State was required to establish: 1) a police officer was ‘lawfully in the viewing area’; 2) the officer ‘discovered the evidence […]

CSAAS Testimony and Retroactivity (Part 5)

Justice Solomon continued in relevant part: That consideration is guided by three factors — “(1) the purpose of the rule and whether it would be furthered by a retroactive application, (2) the degree of reliance placed on the old rule by those who administered it, and (3) the effect a retroactive application would have on […]

CSAAS Testimony and Retroactivity (Part 4)

The unanimous New Jersey Supreme Court continued in relevant part: When all factors bearing upon retroactivity are weighed — whether the rule’s purpose “would be furthered by a retroactive application,” the State’s reliance on the previous rule, and “the effect a retroactive application would have on the administration of justice,” State v. Henderson, 208 N.J. […]
