A request for a civil reservation in municipal court must be made in open court. Maida v. Kuskin 221 N.J. 112 (N.J. 2015).

A request for a civil reservation in municipal court must be made in open court and contemporaneously with the court’s acceptance of defendant’s guilty plea. If the prosecutor or the victim demonstrates good cause, or the charge to which a defendant pleads guilty does not arise out of the same occurrence that is the subject of the civil proceeding, a civil reservation order may not be entered.
