City of Trenton v. Fowler-Thorne Co.
Supreme Court of New Jersey
City of Trenton v. Fowler-Thorne Co., 160 A.2d 131 (N.J. 1960)
32 N.J. 256; 1960 N.J. LEXIS 201
Oueiam
City of Trenton v. Fowler-Thorne Co.
Opinion
We think it unnecessary to decide whether the individual commissioner had authority to institute the action or whether defendant may inquire into the question. We agree with the majority opinion of the Appellate Division that in any event the issue was eliminated by ratification. The question whether the 6 or 16 3'"ear statute of limitations applies need not be considered.
The judgment is affirmed.
For affirmance—Chief Justice Weintraub, and Justices Burling, Eranois, Proctor, Hall and Sci-iettino—6.
For reversal—Hone.
