Borough of Matawan, a Municipal Corporation of the State of New Jersey, Plaintiff-Appellant v. Monmouth County…

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the lower court's judgment, holding that the pre‑amendment statute’s reference to the “preceding year” requires use of the completed school year’s ADE figures and that the doctrine of exhaustion of administrative remedies does not bar judicial review of a pure question of law. The Court declined to address the constitutionality of the regional school district statute.
