Recent Cases: 1. Person Living in Home as Guest could be Household Member under Domestic Violence Act.S.Z. v M.C.617 NJ Super. 627 (App. Div. 2011) The court reverse the trial court and find jurisdiction under the household member provision of the Prevention of Domestic Violence Act in a situation where the male defendant was a guest in the male plaintiffs home, living with plaintiff and his wife and children for seven months. While living with plaintiff, defendant allegedly climbed a ladder placed against the home to peep through a window at plaintiff coming out of the show the court. Ten months after being thrown out of the home, defendant allegedly follow the court plaintiff and planted a secret camera in plaintiffs truck to surreptitiously record him. Although the two men never had a traditional familial, romantic or sexual relationship, the court find that neither the incompatible sexual orientations.

2.UnsignedConfession can be used to Refresh Witness during Trial.State v. Gore205 NJ 363 (A-77-09) State v. Cleveland, 6 N.J., 316 (1951), is superseded by the New Jersey Rules of Evidence. Rule 803(c)(5) permits the admission of a defendants unsigned and unacknowledged transcribed statement, used to refresh a witness memory as past recollection recorded, provided there is no objection and all foundational requirements, including Rule 803(b)(1), are satisfied. Although the trial court erroneously permitted the formal confession statement to be moved into evidence after the record had closed, plain error does not exist because there is no reasonable likelihood that admission of the statement caused the jury to reach a conclusion that it otherwise would not have reached.

E368 Motion to Suppress Granted

1. Motion to Suppress Granted when Police did not Obtain Telephonic Search Warrant for Car.State v Shannon_____ NJ Super. ______ (App. Div. 2011) A-2549-08T4. The court reversed defendants conviction of possession of cocaine, finding his motion to suppress the cocaine found in a warrant-less search of his Jeep should have been granted. The search was not incident to arrest, did not occur late at night, the stop was in a residential area, and four Asbury Park Police Officers were at the scene with defendant, who was alone. The court found no exigency existed pursuant to State v. Pena-Flores, 198 N.J. 6 (2009).

2. If Defendant had Prior CD, cant get PTI. State v OBrien ____ NJ Super. ______ (App. Div. 2011) A-4190-09T2 The question presented is whether a defendant who previously received supervisory treatment under the conditional discharge statute, N.J.S.A. 2C:36A-1, and who later applied for and obtained an order vacating the conditional discharge, may thereafter be admitted into PTI. The court answer the question in the negative, concluding that N.J.S.A. 2C:43-12g and Rule 3:28, Guideline 3(g) prohibit any person previously placed into supervisory treatment under the conditional discharge statute from subsequent admission into PTI, whether the conditional discharge is later vacated or not.

3.Reflections on Memorial Day Memorial Day used to be a solemn day of mourning, a sacred day of remembrance to honor those who paid the ultimate price for our freedoms. Businesses closed for the day. Towns held parades honoring the fallen, the parade routes often times ending at a local cemetery, where Memorial Day speeches were given and prayers offered up. People took the time that day to clean and decorate with flowers and flags the graves of those the fell in service to their country. We need to remember with sincere respect those who paid the price for our freedoms; we need to keep in sacred remembrance those who died serving their country. We need to never let them be forgotten. However, over the years the original meaning and spirit of Memorial Day has faded from the public consciousness. If it is considered a holiday, why is it so? I consider it to be a national day of mourning. This is how we observe this day in our home. Because of what that day represents the rest of the days of the year are our holidays. -- F L Lloyd West Chester, Pa USA - February 26, 2000 On Memorial Day we need to stop and pay with sincere conviction our respects for those who died protecting and preserving the freedoms we enjoy, for we owe those honored dead more than we can ever repay. Changing the date merely to create three-day weekends has undermined the very meaning of the day. No doubt, this has contributed greatly to the general publics nonchalant observance of Memorial Day. -- VFW 2002 Memorial Day address http://www.usmemorialday.org/backgrnd.html

Established in 2003, the month features local, regional and national educational activities designed to encourage Americans to become organ and tissue donors. We recommend all NJ citizens between 18 and 80 have a Living Will/ Advance Directive prepared. Select organ donation in your Living Will. Nationally, more than 110,000 people wait for a life-saving transplant-close to 5,000 of them are here in New Jersey. For many, tragically, the gift will never be received. Nearly 6,000 people die a year - about 18 per day - awaiting the gift of life. One of the most important life-saving decisions you can make is to become a registered donor. Say yes to donation on your New Jersey driver license or state ID when you first apply for and each time you renew. The words Organ Donor will appear on the front of your license and will be included in your computer record with the Motor Vehicle Commission. Not renewing anytime soon? You can register online today by visitingwww.sharenj.org. NJ Sharing Network is a non-profit, federally designated organization responsible for the recovery and placement of donated organs and tissue for New Jersey residents in need of life-saving transplants. For information about donation and transplantation in NJ, contact us at 1-800-SHARE-NJ orinfo@sharenj.org 5. Join theEdison Community PoolNow and Save!

Rule on recording Custodial interrogations reviewed.State v Anthony __ NJ Super __ (App. Div. 2016) Rule 3:17(a) provides that, [unless one of the exceptions set forth in paragraph (b) are present, all custodial interrogations conducted in a place of detention must be electronically recorded when the person being interrogated is charged with certain listed crimes, including murder. However, subsection (b)(vi) excepts from the recordation requirement a statement . . . given at a time when the accused is not a suspect for the crime to which that statement relates while the accused is being interrogated for a different crime that does not require recordation[.] In this case, defendant was arrested on an open motor vehicle warrant and interrogated regarding a homicide. The preliminary interrogation was not recorded, but, at some point, after concluding based on defendants statements that he was a suspect in the homicide, investigators recorded his statement on video. The trial judge denied defendants motion to suppress the statement and concluded there was no obligation to record the initial portion of the interrogation. The court construed the somewhat ambiguous provisions of the Rule and conclude that an interrogation must be recorded if, taking into account the totality of the circumstances then known to the interrogator, a reasonable police officer would have a reasonable basis to believe defendant was a suspect in the crime about which he was being questioned. In this case, the court concluded that the trial judge properly determined that the investigators reasonably concluded that defendant was not a suspect when the interrogation began. 4. Expert can only testify upon his own observations and not just read someone elses report. State v. Bass __ NJ ___ (2016) (A-118-13) The limitation on defendants cross-examination of Sinclair constituted reversible error. Defendant is entitled to a new trial on the charges of murder, attempted murder and the possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose. In addition, the substitute expert read portions of the deceased medical examiners autopsy report to the jury, rather than testifying based on his own observations and conclusions, which violated defendants confrontation rights. On retrial, any expert testimony by a substitute medical examiner should conform to State v. Michaels, 219 N.J. 1, cert. denied, 135 S. Ct. 761, (2014), and State v. Roach, 219 N.J. 58 (2014), cert. denied, 135 S. Ct. 2348 (2015). Defendant was not entitled to an instruction on the use of force against an intruder because he voluntarily admitted the victims to his room. Editorial Assistance Provided by Nicholas Idler.
