1. Patel v. New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission(A-86-08) 11-10-09
The unsafe driving ticket is no points for offense one and two. The 3rd gives the driver 4 points, unless there is more than 5 years between the 2nd and 3rd offense. The Supreme Court held Under N.J.S.A. 39:4-97.2(e), the exemption provision for assessing motor vehicle penalty points for an unsafe driving offense that occurs more than five years after "the prior offense," "the prior offense" refers only to the most recent preceding offense based on both a plain reading of the statute and a review of the legislative history. Thus, the Motor Vehicle Commission correctly imposed motor vehicle points on Patel for having a fourth unsafe driving conviction in 2007, only one year after the date of her prior, third, unsafe driving offense.

2. Congratulations to South Brunswick Varsity Soccer Team on Becoming Middlesex
County Champions!
First county championship in School history. The Vikings captured their first GMC boys soccer county tournament title with a 1-0 victory over North Brunswick. Chase Adams scored the games only goal 10 minutes into the second half off an assist from Bishoy Garis. Nick Goswami made two outstanding saves in the first half and Mike Heyer and the back line held off the Raider attack in the second half.
In the Semi-Finals, South Brunswick defeated Woodbridge. The Vikings used a big
second half to earn a trip to the GMC county finals for the third time in school history. After being down 1-0 at the half, the Vikings exploded for four goals
in the second half. Midway through the second half, Bishoy Garis headed home a Patrick Harkness corner kick. After Woodbridge scored to regain the lead 2 minutes later, the Vikings responded 1 minute later on goal by Patrick Harkness. With less than 10 minutes left, Mike Heyer scored the game winner heading in a Patrick Harkness
flick. Brendan Vercammen iced the game with a rocket that found the upper 90 with
3 minutes to play.
Boys team was also the GMC Red Division champs 2008, 07, 06

Greetings Kenneth Vercammen,
1. New Jersey Military Vets, Towns to Commemorate Veterans Day. By New Jersey Local News Service Local military veterans will be holding services and other events this week to commemorate Veterans Day.
The holiday, originally called Armistice Day, was created to honor veterans of World
War I. The armistice effectively ending the war was signed on Nov. 11, 1918. In
1954, Congress passed legislation setting Nov. 11 as a day to honor American veterans
of all wars.
EAST BRUNSWICK -- "Salute to Veterans," to honor those who served our country, 6p.m. Wednesday, Veterans Park, East Brunswick Municipal Complex, 1 Jean Walling Civic Center. Call (732) 390-6850.
PERTH AMBOY -- Veterans Day Ceremony, co-sponsored by VFW Post 663 and American
Legion Post 45, 11 a.m. Wednesday, Veterans War Memorial, Sadowski Parkway; followed
by the unveiling of the Veterans' Mural at 2 p.m. in the City Hall council chambers.
Call (732) 826-0290.
SOUTH BRUNSWICK -- Veterans Day Observance Ceremony, veterans from VFW Post 9111 and American Legion Post 401 will present ceremonial wreathes in honor and memory of veterans of all branches of the service, 11 a.m. Wednesday, South Brunswick Municipal
Building, Senior Center, 540 Ridge Road in Monmouth Junction. Call (732) 329-4000.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
RECENT CASES:
2. After Juvenile Complaint Filed, No Miranda Waiver in Absence of Counsel. State
in the Interest of P.M.P. ___ NJ ___ (2009) A-5156-07T4
The filing of the complaint and the obtaining of a judicially approved arrest warrant
by the Camden County Prosecutor's Office was a critical stage in the proceedings,
and pursuant to N.J.S.A. 2A:4A-39B(1), P.M.P. had the right to counsel and could not waive that right except in the presence of and after consultation with his attorney counsel. Therefore, the trial court properly granted P.M.P.'s motion to suppress his statement.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3. MVC/DMV Can Suspend NJ DL for Florida DWI Two Years Ago. Carrasco v. N.J. Motor
Vehicle Commission ___ NJ Super. ___ (App. Div. 2009) Unreported. 05-2-4275
The Motor Vehicle Commission's two-year delay in suspending the appellant's New
Jersey driving privileges following his conviction and license suspension in Florida
for driving under the influence of alcohol did not constitute double punishment, since an offender has no legal right to concurrent suspension periods. Nor did the delay constitute a factual dispute that would have entitled the appellant to an MVC hearing, since the reason for delay in the issuance and transmittal of notice by Florida officials was not material to the mandatory action taken by the MVC upon
receipt of that notice.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4. For Domestic Violence, Calls Must be Annoying or Threatening. Quesada v. Gonzales
App. Div. 2009, 20-2-4202, decided June 17, 2009, Unpublished.
Deferring to the trial court's assessment of credibility and its finding that plaintiff failed to show the elements of harassment where it was not alleged that the offending telephone call was made at inconvenient hours or in offensively coarse language or in a manner likely to cause annoyance or alarm, and that even if defendant had threatened to beat her, that in itself does not constitute an act of domestic violence,and that the court was justified in considering the context and backdrop of the parties' relationship, including any ulterior motive of the victim whose safety is allegedly threatened, the panel affirms the trial court's dismissal of plaintiff's temporary restraining order and the denial or her request for a final restraining order. Unreported.
