Distinguished

  • Distinguished by Lavin v. Hackensack Bd. of Ed., 178 N.J. Super. 221 (1981)

    In holding that petitioner's claim was no different from any cause of action grounded in contract, the State Board principally relied upon Miller v. Hudson County Freeholders Bd., 10 N.J. 398 (1952), a case which Lavin claims is distinguishable.
