State of New Jersey v. ROBERT C. MORGAN, JR. (A-5969-05T1)

Argued April 18, 2007 - Decided - June 6, 2007

[06/07/07 – 4:18 am] Yesterday’s Appellate Division holding in State v.
Morgan stands for the proposition that the sworn testimony of a police
officer can be sufficient evidence to prove the authorized speed on a
roadway during a speeding prosecution. The Appellate Division also
expressed its concern about continuing the validity of N.J.S.A. 39:5-31,
the statute which permits a judge to revoke a driver’s license for a
willful violation of any offense in Subtitle 1 of Title 39. However, the
panel declined to rule on the merits of this issue due to mootness.
