Case Details
New Jersey Court ruled that the Union City Board of Education is 'vicariously liable' as the employer of a former teacher-coach convicted of serial sexual abuse of student-athletes. The court granted summary judgment on vicarious liability and denied the school board's motion to dismiss direct negligence claims.
Additional Notes
The ruling recognized the changed landscape of the 2019 amendments to the New Jersey Tort Claims Act, providing meaningful remedies for victims.
