Recent cases
1. Driver can be charged with criminal driving while suspended if they had prior refusal and prior DWI.  State v Dougherty.

   The court finds that the plain language of N.J.S.A. 2C:40-26(b), the fourth-degree offense of driving while suspended, includes both driving while under the influence (DWI), N.J.S.A. 39:4-50, and refusal to submit to breath testing (refusal), N.J.S.A. 39:4-50.4a. They are predicate offenses even where the prior conviction history consists of one conviction under the separate sections of the Motor Vehicle Code. In other words, one DWI and one refusal suffice for the criminal offense of driving while suspended.
2. Ordinary police video not subject to OPRA. Paff v. OceanCounty Prosecutor's Office.

    The Court reverses the judgment of the Appellate Division panel, concurring with the panel's dissenting judge that the MVR recordings were not "required by law" within the meaning of N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1.1, that they constitute criminal investigatory records under that provision, and that they are therefore not subject to disclosure under OPRA. The Court agrees with the panel's conclusion that the recordings are not within OPRA's "investigations in progress" provision, and that OPRA's privacy clause does not exempt the recordings from disclosure. The Court remands the matter to the trial court for consideration of plaintiff's claim of a common-law right of access to the MVR recordings.
