Recent Important Cases...
1. Six-month Alcotest Inspection Applies after March 17, 2008. State v. Pollock 07 NJ Super. 100 (App. Div. 2009)
Defendant appealed his conviction for a per se violation of N.J.S.A. 39:4-50, driving with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 percent or more. The Court is called upon to determine whether the semiannual-recalibration requirement for Alcotest
machines, established by the Supreme Court in State v. Chun, 194 N.J. 54, cert. denied, ___ U.S. ___, 129 S. Ct. 158, 172 L. Ed. 2d 41 (2008), is applicable to cases in which the test was administered prior to Chun and in compliance with the
then existing annual-recalibration protocol. Because the court determined that the change mandated by Chun was not intended to be applied to such, the court affirmed the conviction.

2. Three-Year-Old's Statements Admissible under Tender Years Exception to Hearsay.
State v. Coder 198 NJ 451 (Decided May 4, 2009) A-28-08
In defendant's criminal trial on charges of sexual assault on a minor, the out-of-court statements by the victim - a three-year-old child - as testified to by her mother, were properly admitted because the statements were the tender years exception to the hearsay rule. Additionally, because the child's statements were not testimonial, they did not implicate the defendant's Confrontation
Clause rights.
