The Record
A Superior Court judge has ruled that Governor Christie must reinstate a $1.6 billion cut he made to the state’s pension payments for the current fiscal year.
Mercer County Superior Court Assignment Judge Mary C. Jacobson issued her ruling Monday, one day before Governor Christie is set to deliver his budget for the next fiscal year, which begins July 1.
Jacobson said the state must also reimburse the public employee unions for legal costs.
“The word for me is not vindication, it’s hope that in fact hundreds of thousands of workers will not have their pensions taken away from them,” said Hetty Rosenstein, state director of the Communications Workers of America, one of the unions in the lawsuit.
The governor’s office did not immediately comment Monday.
Just from the look of this judge. Was there ever any doubt as to what her decision was going to be?
The state made the deal so just pay up! What the hell do looks have to do with it?
Declan Harrison is one of the beautiful people in the world jjj. You know the type.
When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself.
Her look is that of Liberal Central Casting.
Hopefully, the appeal will prevail. As for paying up, perhaps you know where this magical money is?
I didn’t comment on her attractiveness. You both did. I only commented on her look, which she has created and is pure MSNBC.
Just pay up? With whose money? I haven’t seen any tax cuts coming my way for the last 30 years.
Declan Harrison what a phony you are. ” I only commented on her look” and enlightens us tell us what does a Liberal look like? Nice try.
Who is going to pay 2:51 all you limousine liberals
No, liberals don’t have “a look” per se, but there are people that you simply know just from their appearance and grooming are liberals. This judge is one of those people. Since this comment of mine has caused such a reaction, I did some Googling on this judge. Wow. Talk about judging the book by its cover.
Now, I’m going to watch Rachel Maddow tonight and see if I can get really good at this spot-a-liberal talent of mine.
put a red wig and glasses on her and she could pass for the Glen Rock Savings bank robber…
…maybe that’s where the money is coming from
hey it,s the law, all the big wigs are screwing this state up.
I think you’re on to something. I would start looking at her case load at the time of the robbery!
Your a “Class Act” Declan
Declan is spot on for once
