04-23-09 Nini v. Mercer County Community College
A-2802-07T3
We held that N.J.S.A. 10:5-12, which allows an employer to
refuse to accept for employment or to promote any person over
the age of seventy, does not apply to nonrenewal of contracts of
long-term employees over the age of seventy. Here, we reversed
and remanded for trial a complaint filed by a seventy-three year
old woman who established a prima facie case of employment was not renewed due to her age.
