Argued April 30, 2001

On appeal from the Superior Court, Law Division, Somerset County.

This is an interlocutory appeal arising from a civil action for false arrest, invasion of privacy, malicious prosecution, false imprisonment, and other causes of action against several defendants including thirteen employees of the Somerset County Prosecutor’s Office (SCPO). We must determine whether pursuant to the relevant provisions of the Tort Claims Act (TCA), N.J.S.A. 59:1-1 to 12-3, the State of New Jersey is vicariously liable for the actions of the SCPO’s employees and whether the State is required to indemnify and defend them. The trial court held that the State was neither vicariously liable for the SCPO’s employees’ conduct nor required to defend and indemnify them. The Appellate Division denied appellants’ motions for interlocutory review.
