Terms Used In New Jersey Statutes 30:11-18

  • Appeal: A request made after a trial, asking another court (usually the court of appeals) to decide whether the trial was conducted properly. To make such a request is "to appeal" or "to take an appeal." One who appeals is called the appellant.
  • Jurisdiction: (1) The legal authority of a court to hear and decide a case. Concurrent jurisdiction exists when two courts have simultaneous responsibility for the same case. (2) The geographic area over which the court has authority to decide cases.
  • registered mail: include "certified mail". See New Jersey Statutes 1:1-2
Notice of the pending revocation, suspension, or denial of a license together with a specification of charges shall be sent to the applicant or the licensee by registered mail. Denial, suspension or revocation shall become effective 30 days after mailing, unless the applicant or licensee within such 30-day period shall meet the requirements of the department or shall give written notice to the department of his desire for a hearing, in which case, the denial, suspension or revocation shall be held in abeyance until the hearing has been concluded and a final decision rendered; provided, however, that such applicant or licensee may appeal from such denial, suspension or revocation to any court having jurisdiction of such matters.
