Terms Used In New Jersey Statutes 54:10A-15.3

  • Bankruptcy: Refers to statutes and judicial proceedings involving persons or businesses that cannot pay their debts and seek the assistance of the court in getting a fresh start. Under the protection of the bankruptcy court, debtors may discharge their debts, perhaps by paying a portion of each debt. Bankruptcy judges preside over these proceedings.
In the case of a taxpayer which is in bankruptcy, or receivership, or which has realized a nonrecurring extraordinary gain which would distort the amount of its installment payment, or which estimates that it will conduct its business at a loss in the current fiscal or calendar accounting year, the director, upon satisfactory proof, may require the taxpayer under oath, to submit details upon which it may estimate, subject to review by the director, its tax for the current fiscal or calendar accounting year, and make an installment payment in an amount based upon the percentage applicable to the installment payment.
