With the retirement of Justice Barry Albin, there are now three vacancies on the New Jersey Supreme Court. This of course is in addition to the persistently and detrimentally high number of unfilled positions on the Superior Court.
We strongly believe that it is of the utmost importance that the Supreme Court be at full strength by the opening of the new term in September. Temporary assignees are good judges and can write good opinions, but they do not provide for continuity of precedent when deciding close questions, and the law should not depend on which one, two or three temporary assignees are sitting on a case. Precedent helps attorneys appropriately advise clients and assures compliance with the law. And Supreme Court precedent should be decided and developed by Supreme Court justices who were vetted and evaluated for their potential contributions to that court.
