Kim Allen v. Cape May County (083295) (Cape May County & Statewide) (A-49-19

 Kim Allen v. Cape May County (083295) (Cape May County & Statewide) (A-49-19; 083295)

Because it is unclear whether defendants’ motion for summary judgment was decided based on the CEPA provision on which plaintiff relies, the Court remands plaintiff’s claim regarding the Capehart & Scatchard proposal to the trial court. As a matter of law, plaintiff presented no prima facie evidence of a causal nexus between her comments on the retention of Ballard Spahr and the County’s decision not to renew her contract. The Court reinstates the order granting summary judgment as to that claim.
