How New Jersey Supreme Court holidays affect filings
The Supreme Court of New Jersey publishes court-year orders for legal holidays and court recesses. Deadline checks should pair those orders with the Rules of Court, eCourts Appellate, notices to the bar, and any emergent matter instructions
Use the court-year holiday and recess order for statewide closure dates
Check whether the matter is emergent before relying on a recess date
Pair eCourts Appellate filing status with the applicable Supreme Court rule
