STATE VS. ELLEN HEIN A-5858-09T2/A-1720-10T4

STATE VS. ELLEN HEIN           A-5858-09T2/A-1720-10T4 
     In these consolidated appeals we reverse the Law Division's finding that defendant was guilty of violating a municipal ordinance requiring an inspection of her property.  We do so on the basis of evolved Fourth Amendment jurisprudence viewed under the lens of our State constitution and reach the conclusion that the ordinance, as applied to defendant, is unconstitutional.  We affirm the Law Division's separate finding the defendant was guilty of violating three local provisions of a property maintenance code.  01-31-12
