There is absolutely no support for this theory in any New Jersey statute, regulation, or case law.  The trial court found the claims so lacking as to dismiss the Class Action Counterclaim (the “Counterclaim”) filed by appellants [...] (“Tenant”) and [...] (“Guarantor”) (collectively, “Appellants”) with prejudice on the first motion to dismiss filed by respondent [...] d/b/a [...] (“[...]”).
