Summary

The New Jersey Supreme Court reversed the Appellate Division and held that New Jersey’s 9‑1‑1 immunity statute, N.J.S.A. 52:17C‑10(d), shields 9‑1‑1 operators and their municipal employer from civil liability for negligent handling of emergency calls, and remanded for determination of whether the operators’ conduct rose to wanton and willful disregard.
