SECTION 240:10-11-24. Good cause  


Latest version.
  •   Good cause is defined as a situation beyond the control of the parties. Situations considered beyond the control of the party may include, a disabling personal illness, death in the immediate family, jury duty, military obligations or any other circumstance that would make it impossible for a party to appear for a hearing or comply with a requirement of these rules, the Employment Security Act of 1980, or any determination or notice served on the party. Good cause will not be found if the failure to act is due to the negligence or inattentiveness of the party or the party's representative or attorney-at-law.
