So here is the question:  If someone falls due to these dangerous sidewalks and curb-sides  (including grassy  strips which have plants or holes in the ground)  and has an injury, who will the  “slip and fall lawyer” sue?  Who will be the defendant:  Will it be the Township, or the CMA, or the homeowner—or all three?

Regarding the grassy strips, they are owned by the CMA but the homeowner is responsible for their care.

Just Wondering: What about sidewalks?

From Penny of OG:

The homeowners in town are responsible for their sidewalks, but many don’t repair them.  What is the Township’s responsibility for the safety of its citizens who are at risk from broken sidewalks?  Such walkways can be major hazards for pedestrians and even bike riders. Senior citizens are especially vulnerable to falls.

Are Neptune homeowners also responsible for their sidewalks?

Thanks.

Editor’s Note:   Can you imagine walking your girl Sue back home one night from the Great Auditorium.  It’s dark out and romantic along Heck Ave. A summer breeze enhances the mood, and so you try to steal  a little kiss and you get powder all over your vest and in your eyes, and then  KABOOM!

Call your lawyer  but whom will you sue Sue?
