Plus Judge Can Suspend DL for Willful Traffic Offense.
State v. Moran 202 NJ 311 (2010) The license suspension provision of N.J.S.A. 39:5-31, which is published in the Motor Vehicle Code of the New Jersey Statutes Annotated, is not “hidden,” and defendant, like all motorists, is presumed to know the law. To ensure that license suspensions meted out pursuant to N.J.S.A. 39:5-31 are imposed in a reasonably fair and uniform manner, so that similarly situated defendants are treated similarly, the Court today defines the term “willful violation” contained in N.J.S.A. 39:5-31 and enunciates sentencing standards to guide municipal court and Law Division judges Subsequent offense: Fine or imprisonment not exceeding 15 days, or both $250 -$1,000 A Certified Municipal Court Law Attorney can probably plea bargain for a no point ticket.
