Sooy v. Gill
New Jersey Superior Court Appellate Division
Decided May 21, 2001PublishedCited by 4 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
The opinion of the court was delivered by
KEEFE, P.J.A.D.
The issue presented in these two eases, which we have consolidated for the purpose of this opinion, is whether a candidate for public office is entitled to use a professional title preceding the candidate’s name on the ballot. The issue is one of first impression in this State.1 The Law Division judges in each case ruled that the County Clerks of Salem and Gloucester Counties abused their discretion in refusing to permit the candidates to use their professional titles. We reverse the judgments under review.
Richard Sooy, Jr., and Warren…
