Supreme Court of New Jersey

Steven Pfau, Plaintiffs-Appellants v. Trent Aluminum Company, Defendants- Respondents

March 17, 197055 N.J. 511

Summary

The New Jersey Supreme Court reversed the Appellate Division and reinstated the trial court's decision striking the Iowa guest‑statute defense, holding that Iowa law does not apply because the state has no substantive interest and the substantive laws of New Jersey and Connecticut are identical, allowing recovery for ordinary negligence.
