Supreme Court of New Jersey

State of New Jersey, Plaintiff-Respondent v. Elise N. Munafo

August 5, 2015222 N.J. 480

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the conviction for endangering an injured victim, holding that the statute N.J.S.A. 2C:12-1.2 does not require proof that the defendant's flight increased the risk of further harm. The Court also rejected the invited error doctrine as a bar to plain error review because counsel's participation did not constitute an invitation of error.
