Paula Alexander, Joan Coll, and Cheryl Thompsonsard, Plaintiffs-Appellants v. Seton Hall University, John J. Myers…

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey held that each discriminatory wage payment under the Law Against Discrimination is a separate actionable violation subject to the two‑year statute of limitations, and therefore the plaintiffs’ complaint was timely for wages received within two years before filing; the Court reversed the Appellate Division and remanded for reinstatement of those timely claims. Justice Rivera‑Soto concurred in part and dissented in part, agreeing with the majority’s analysis of the LAD but rejecting the decision to reinstate the complaint.
