Supreme Court of New Jersey
State of New Jersey, Plaintiff-Appellant v. Habeeb Robinson, Defendant-Respondent
May 10, 2017229 N.J. 44
Summary
The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the Appellate Division’s judgment and adopted a revised Rule 3:4-2(c) governing discovery in pre‑trial detention hearings. The Court held that the rule requires disclosure of statements, reports and identification photos but does not require disclosure of surveillance video, and it found the discovery scheme satisfies due‑process requirements. Justice Albin dissented in part, arguing the new rule improperly limits discovery of video evidence.
