Opinion
A-5468-00T5
Argued: April 15, 2002
Decided: May 7, 2002
On appeal from Superior Court of New Jersey Law Division, Sussex County, SSX-L-191-01.
Before Judges Kestin, Steinberg and Alley.
Greenbaum, Rowe, Smith, Ravin, Davis Himmel, attorneys for appellant (Dean A. Gaver, of counsel and, with Steven Firkser, on the brief).
McConnell, Lenard Griggs, attorneys for respondent (Dennis R. McConnell, of counsel and, with Robert B. Campbell, on the brief).
The opinion of the Court was delivered by
Defendant appeals from the trial court's order for judgment and appointing commissioners. The single issue raised is that "[t]he condemnation action should be dismissed as a result of the county's breach of its contractual commitments and violation of its duty of good faith in exercising its powers of eminent domain."
We have reviewed the record in the light of the written and oral arguments advanced by the parties and, after evaluating the issues in the context of prevailing rules of law, we are in substantial agreement with the reasons for decision articulated by Judge Stanton in his written opinion of June 4, 2001, reported at 351 N.J. Super. 66, 796 A.2d 958 (Law. Div. 2001).
Affirmed.
