message: Couldn't figure out how to indicate a source for the new information I added on the NJSC nominations made by Governor Corzine yesterday but the article is at: http://www.nj.com/news/ledger/index.ssf?/base/news-9/1158905284220350.xml&coll=1&thispage=1.

thread_title: Serious POV evident

message: Just a note that I have removed the section on "Political standing," which was the subject of some of the comments above.  Most of it was indeed POV, not to mention just plain incorrect.  There is a tradition of partisan balance on the Court, which was hinted at in the "Current Membership" section, and which I have made explicit (with the source that was cited, though misquoted, in the "Political standing" section.)  This does not, however, stop the Court from being "liberal" and, at least to a degree, "activist."  I do not think there is any point debating those attributes (and not everybody views them as negative), so I have just added a brief mention (without POV words like "derided") to the "Important decisions" section.  The fact is that in New Jersey, Republican governors tend to be fairly liberal while Democratic governors are usually solidly liberal, so who do you expect to get appointed to the Supreme Court?  Former Chief Justice Poritz is as Republican as they come, and appointed by a Republican governor (Whitman), but she was the author of what is possibly the most "liberal" opinion in a major case in many years, that is the dissenting opinion in the recent "gay marriage" case.  (Hers was the opinion that said that nothing short of "marriage" for same-gender couples would satisfy the constitution.)  Meanwhile, the more "moderate" opinion (the one that says "civil unions" will satisfy the constitution) was written by a Democrat, Justice Albin.  So this is not a matter of political party, it is a matter of the general ideological leaning of the state as a whole.  It's not something to be too concerned about -- there are more than enough "conservative states" to make up for New Jersey.  :)   Neutron 02:43, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Section removed

message: An updated official NJ Supreme Court photo is on the judiciary web site at http://www.judiciary.state.nj.us/supreme/images/newsupreme.jpg.  It has the Justice Zazzali in the center chair and new Associate Jusice Hoens looking hopeful if cautious in the upper right.  (This could be because she is the only justice that the anti-gay-marriage-rights-decision folks aren't trying to impeach.)  Regrettably, the fact that Justice Rivero-Soto is wearing a bow tie has not changed.  Anyway, I will let someone else grab and upload the photo -- and jump through Wikipedia's fair-use-justification hoops.  (You could just copy what the person who uploaded the last photo -- presumably from the exact same site -- wrote, but that assumes that they were correct.)  Neutron 07:01, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yuck! Green backed reporters! Anyway, I'd recommened someone overwrite the current version with the new one. 68.39.174.238 01:57, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ironically, those green-covered reporters (New Jersey Superior Court Reports) cover the lower courts, not the Supreme Court.  New Jersey Reports, which covers the Supreme Court, have off-white covers.   Neutron 21:43, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

text: I was responsible for the last FUI-rationale and it should hold exactly the same for this image. I'm fully willing to defend the image against any claims of fair use impropriety if it gets uploaded. 68.39.174.238 23:57, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Two versions out 

message: http://www.judiciary.state.nj.us/60th_anniversary/SupCourt119.html is an image of the actual courtroom, if the fair use will stand it... 68.39.174.238 (talk) 18:52, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Images 

message: The seal on the page is given to attorneys certified by the Board of Attorney Certifications as Civil or Criminal Trial Attorneys, or specialists in Matrimonial or Workers Compensation law.  It is not used by all attorneys who have passed the bar, as the previous version of the page implies.  I have changed the caption and added a new reference link to the BAC.

thread_title:  Certified Attorney 

message: Since I'm new to this, maybe it has already been discussed - but the formal name of the court, according to their web page, law licenses, etc., is "Supreme Court of New Jersey", not "New Jersey Supreme Court".  Ksmjr (talk) 18:07, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

message: Are the footnotes working for others? Specifically, the footnote numbers in the text for the paragraph starting "In Democratic Party v. Samson (814 A.2d 1028)" do not appear to match the numbers in the Reference section. Does anyone else see the problem and is there a fix? Knope7 (talk) 03:49, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
