Ivan v. County of Middlesex, No. 03-1703; U.S. District Court (DNJ); opinion by Walls, S.U.S.D.J.; filed May 7, 2009. DDS No. 25-7-3799 [16 pp.]
Defendants Lt. Donald Blount, Sheriff Joseph Spicuzzo, Undersheriff Angelo Falcone and Sgt. Bruce Allen move for reconsideration of the denial of their motion for summary judgment based on Cicchetti v. Morris County Sheriff’s Office , 194 N.J. 563 (2008), decided after the parties had completed briefing of defendants’ motion. They ask the court to revisit two of plaintiffs’ claims: aiding and abetting violations of the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination and violations of equal protection. The claims arise out of defendants’ alleged direct and indirect sexual harassment of plaintiff-female sheriff’s officers, and their failure to respond to plaintiffs’ complaints of harassment.
