On May 4, 2010, the New Jersey Supreme Court denied the petition for certification filed by Lake Valley Associates, LLC, seeking leave to appeal from the Appellate Division’s order upholding the validity of Pemberton Township’s landlord registration ordinance. Therefore, the reported opinion of the Appellate Division in Lake Valley Associates, LLC v. Pemberton Township, Docket No. A-4040-07, confirming that municipalities may regulate rental properties within their borders through the licensing and registration of such properties, is binding precedent. GluckWalrath represented Pemberton Township, the prevailing party, in this lawsuit.
