Robert Wayne Tarus, Plaintiff-Appellant v. Borough of Pine Hill

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey held that a common law right to videotape municipal council meetings exists, that the Borough of Pine Hill violated that right by imposing unreasonable ad‑hoc restrictions, and that the plaintiff is estopped from relitigating the issue of probable cause because it was previously decided. The Court affirmed the lower court’s finding of probable cause and remanded for further proceedings consistent with its opinion.
