John Amelchenko, Plaintiff-Respondent v. Borough of Freehold, a Municipal Corporation, Defendant-Appellant

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey held that the Borough of Freehold was not negligent in failing to clear snow from its public parking lot because it exercised reasonable care under its established snow‑removal procedures, and that the municipal immunity statute did not bar liability for negligence of its agents. Accordingly, the Court reversed the Appellate Division and remanded for entry of judgment for the defendant. The Court also affirmed its jurisdiction, finding no constitutional question was presented.
