Supreme Court of New Jersey

Thomas O. Marshall, Jr. v. Geo. M…

April 2, 196237 N.J. 176

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey reversed the Appellate Division, holding that Pennsylvania's one‑year limitation in its wrongful‑death statute is a procedural limitation and therefore New Jersey's two‑year limitation applies, that forum non conveniens does not bar the action, and that summary judgment was improperly denied.
