Salisky v. City of Garfield
Supreme Court of New Jersey · Decided September 14, 1944 · PER CURIAM.
39 A.2d 70; 132 N.J.L. 144; 1944 N.J. LEXIS 231 (Atlantic Reporter, Second Series)

Salisky v. City of Garfield

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The judgment is affirmed, for the reasons stated in the opinion of Mr. Justice Porter for the Supreme Court.

As respects the questions of fact, there was tangible evidence to support the findings, below; and it is elementary-in our jurisprudence that findings of fact on conflicting evidence, or on uncontroverted evidence reasonably susceptible of divergent inferences, are not reviewable on error.

It is also urged that the demotion of the superior officers two ranks instead of to the next rank below contravenes R. 8. 40:11-10.

It was conceded on the oral argument that this point was not raised on the brief submitted by appellant to the Supreme Court (there was no oral argument); and it is therefore not one for the consideration of this court, and we express no opinion respecting it.

Judgment affirmed.

For affirmance — The Chancellor, Chibe Justice, Parker, Bodine, Heher, Perskie, Oolie, Dear, Wells, Raeeertx, Hague, Thompson, Dill, JJ. 13.

For reversal — None.
