01-2-2814 Department of Community Affairs, Bureau of Code Services v. Major et al. , App. Div. (per curiam) (8 pp.) According appropriate deference to the agency’s expertise, the court affirms the DCA determination, entered after an investigation commenced when four employees received electrical shocks, that defendant violated various regulations governing amusement rides. However, the court reduces the penalty, finding that a penalty should not be assessed for the first incident since defendant did not know that the ride was unsafe prior to that incident. [Decided Feb. 20, 2009.]
ADMINISTRATIVE LAW — MOTOR VEHICLE COMMISSION — DRUNK DRIVING
01-2-2849 Lypowy v. N.J. Motor Vehicle Commission , App. Div. (per curiam) (4 pp.) Defendant’s contention that he was entitled to a hearing before the 10-year suspension of his driver’s license was imposed is rejected as there were no disputed questions of fact since defendant did not contest the contents of his driving record but the effect of two N.Y. state convictions under N.J.S.A. 39:4-50(a)(3). There was no error in not ordering the installation of an interlock device on his vehicle in lieu of suspension as they are to be installed after the period of suspension, not in lieu of suspension. [Decided Feb. 24, 2009.]
