GERALDINE MURRAY, ET AL. VS. PLAINFIELD RESQUE SQUAD,
ET AL.
A-2906-08T1 03-30-11
Although members of a municipal rescue squad who responded
to a shooting were not entitled to immunity under N.J.S.A.
2A:62A-1, the Good Samaritan Act, because they had a duty to
respond, they were entitled to immunity under N.J.S.A. 26:2K-29
because plaintiffs failed to establish the members either did
not act in an objectively reasonable manner or lacked subjective
good faith.
Plaintiffs also failed to present a prima facie case
against the owner and operator of a mobile intensive care unit
dispatched to the scene. Plaintiffs' expert report with
respect to causation contained only a net opinion, and
plaintiffs' expert with respect to negligence expressed no
opinion regarding the mobile intensive care unit.
The trial court correctly granted summary judgment and
dismissed the complaint.
