DASHI SLATINA v. D. CONSTRUCTION CORP
Date: August 3, 2012
Docket Number: a0851-10 PER CURIAM Dashi Slatina suffered serious injuries when a masonry wall he was erecting toppled on him. He timely filed suit against Newport Associates Development Company (Newport), who he alleged was the owner and or general contractor. Over two years after the suit was filed, Newport obtained summary judgment dismissing the complaint with prejudice. Newport initially admitted in its answer to the complaint that it owned the property "at all relevant times" but in its summary judgment motion, Newport argued successfully it was not liable because it had sold the property the year before the accident to Shore Club North Urban Renewal Company, LLC (Shore North Urban), which hired Shore Club North Construction Company, LLC (Shore North Construction) to erect the building. Promptly after judgment, plaintiff moved to reinstate the complaint to enable him to amend it to add the actual owner and general contractor. Finding no basis to reconsider summary judgment under Rule 4:49-2, the court denied the motion to amend because the complaint remained dismissed.

STATE OF NEW JERSEY v. PHILLIP S. SILVERS
Date: July 25, 2012
Docket Number: a0697-10 PER CURIAM Following a jury trial, defendant, Phillip S. Silvers, was convicted of third-degree theft by unlawful taking, N.J.S.A. 2C:20-3; and third-degree conspiracy with co-defendant Crystal M. Studstill, to commit theft, N.J.S.A. 2C:5-2 and 2C:20-3. Prior to sentencing, defendant moved for a judgment of acquittal and for a new trial, arguing that the jury did not deliberate for a sufficient period of time, and the State failed to prove that the amount of the theft exceeded $500. The judge denied defendant's motions, as well as the State's motion for imposition of an extended term. After merging the conspiracy conviction into the theft conviction, the judge imposed a five-year term with a thirty-month period of parole ineligibility. We affirm. At trial, two witnesses testified for the State. Defendant did not testify or present any witnesses. In his opening statement, the Assistant Prosecutor made the following comment:

IN THE MATTER OF THE TENURE HEARING OF EDITH CRAFT SCHOOL DISTRICT OF THE TOWNSHIP OF FRANKLIN, SOMERSET COUNTY
Date: July 5, 2012
Docket Number: a0415-11 PER CURIAM Special education teacher Edith Craft appeals from the September 1, 2011 decision of the Acting Commissioner of Education, which sustained the charges against her of conduct unbecoming and imposed a penalty of suspension without pay for 240 days, as well as all increments for the 2011-2012 school year. Craft does not dispute that she slapped one of her special education students in the face after the eight-year-old slapped her. She claimed it was a reflexive action, and it therefore should not constitute unbecoming conduct. The Franklin Township Board of Education seeks to delay the loss of increments penalty until the next year in which the district's teachers receive increments.1 After reviewing the record in light of the contentions advanced on appeal, we affirm the decision of the Commissioner and delay the loss of increments as requested by the Board.
