Marlene Livingstone, Petitioner-Respondent v. Abraham & Straus, Inc., Respondent-Appellant

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the Appellate Division, holding that the employee’s injury occurred in the course of employment because the employer’s parking directive gave it sufficient control over the designated area of the mall lot, making the accident compensable under N.J.S.A. 34:15-36. Justice Clifford dissented, arguing that the employer lacked control and the injury should be non‑compensable.
