In the Matter of the Certificates of Nicholas Cilento, State Board of Examiners, New Jersey Department of Education

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the Appellate Division, holding that the State Board of Examiners may impose a two‑year suspension of a teacher’s certificate even after an arbitrator imposed a three‑month suspension, because the doctrines of res judicata and collateral estoppel do not apply, there is no privity, and no due‑process violation was found.
