Supreme Court of New Jersey

City of Newark, Petitioner-Respondent v. Charles Fischer, or Norbet Corporation, Respondent-Appellant

January 16, 19503 N.J. 488

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey reversed the Appellate Division, holding that a correction of a judgment that merely fixes a clerical error does not restart the statutory one‑month appeal period. Accordingly, the City of Newark's appeal filed on December 8, 1947 was untimely because the period began on the original judgment date of October 30, 1947.
