Atlantic County’s shortage of Superior Court judges can be trying. Or not so trying, as the case may be.
With just three of the five full-time benches filled in one of the state’s busiest criminal courts, trials will be at a minimum.
“Cases that are on the trial list
are being put off until the first of the year, so that the courts can
cope with the cases coming in every week,” Atlantic County Prosecutor
Jim McClain said. “So that’s going to slow things down tremendously.”
Atlantic County lost three of its five criminal court judges to retirement over the summer. While the retirements were planned, there still have been no formal nominations from Gov. Chris Christie.
