Geraldine Murray and Odis E. Murray v. Plainfield Rescue Squad (A-128-10; 067996)


Geraldine Murray and Odis E. Murray v. Plainfield Rescue Squad (A-128-10; 067996)

Although N.J.S.A. 26:2K-29 provides immunity to “officers and members” of a rescue squad for civil damages in rendering “intermediate life support services in good faith,” the plain language of the statute does not provide immunity to a rescue squad as an entity. Thus, Plainfield Rescue Squad is subject to a civil suit for negligence based on the facts alleged by plaintiffs. 7-17-12
