Supreme Court of New Jersey
Gallimore McDonald, Appellant-Appellant v. Steven Pinchak, Respondent-Respondent
January 25, 1995139 N.J. 188
Summary
The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the Appellate Division's decision and remanded the case to the Department of Corrections to clarify the record regarding the inmate's requests to call witnesses and to confront and cross‑examine them. The Court reaffirmed the procedural due‑process standards set in Avant and held that tape‑recording disciplinary hearings is not required. Justice Stein dissented in part, arguing that the remand should provide a new hearing and vacate the prior determination.
