Long-Awaited Answer in New Jersey Minor Party Case is Due Today

Back on October 13, 2006, three minor parties in New Jersey filed an important lawsuit dealing with many New Jersey election laws that discriminate against all parties except the Democratic and Republican Parties. The lawsuit is Green Party of N.J. v State, Mercer Co. Chancery Court, MER-C-125-06. Last year, the state had requested an extension until Saturday, February 3. As of 1 pm eastern standard time, the state’s answer still has not arrived at the court clerk’s office, nor at the office of the attorneys who filed the case, and the state will be in default if its answer hasn’t arrived by the close of business today.

UPDATE: The state is in default, since its answer still has not arrived as of 2 pm eastern time, February 6.
