How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that a failure to set forth an issue on appeal and present arguments in support of that issue in an opening brief generally amounts to abandonment and waiver of that issue
• concluding the phrase “‘of a state’ connotes sovereignty, limiting jurisdiction to the state courts of the named state” (cleaned up)
• rejecting the argument that “courts of the State [of] New Jersey” must include federal courts because New Jersey has a unified Superior Court (emphasis added)
