The New Jersey State Bar Association (NJSBA) Board of Trustees approved the appointment of New Jersey State Bar Foundation (NJSBF) trustees and voted to submit comments on a Supreme Court Civil Practice Committee report at its April 24 meeting. In accordance with social distancing guidelines in effect due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, the meeting was held via conference call.
The board approved the Civil Trial Bar Section’s recommendations to provide comments on the Supreme Court Civil Practice Committee report, supporting the majority of the committee’s recommendations. In addition, the NJSBA asked the committee to further review proposed amendments to Rule 4:22-1 regarding requests for admission; supported a new rule on motions in limine, but requested that some additional considerations be included; asked that Social Security numbers continue to be required in personal injury and medical malpractice interrogatories; and praised the creation of a new track to allow greater flexibility in some civil cases, where all parties and clients agree.
