R.A. Feuer v. Merck (081409) (Union County and Statewide)

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the Appellate Division’s judgment, holding that the shareholder’s request for a broad array of corporate documents exceeded the scope of the inspection right granted by N.J.S.A. 14A:5-28 and that the common law does not provide a remedy in these circumstances. The Court relied on the statutory language and established common‑law principles to reject the plaintiff’s demands.
