The Civil Service Commission may assess all administrative costs incurred under N.J.S.11A:4-5. Other costs, charges and fines of not more than $10,000… Implemented by 2 rules in N.J.A.C. Title 4A.
In plain language
Costs and fines. The Commission may charge back all the administrative costs it incurs under 11A:4-5, the section on using an eligible list. Beyond that it may assess other costs, charges and fines up to ten thousand dollars for noncompliance with the title or with any Commission order. The ceiling applies only to this section. 11A:10-1, which recovers a disapproved salary and can reach the personal funds of whoever authorised it, says in terms that this figure does not limit it.
Written by the NJ Civil Service Navigator editorial team from the text of this section. The statute itself is below, unabridged.
Current through the close of the 221st Legislature (L. 2025, c. 346). What that means
Enacted by L. 1986, c. 112, effective September 25, 1986. Last amended by L. 2008, c. 29, effective June 30, 2008.
A New Jersey statute changes only when the Legislature amends it, so a section untouched since its last amendment is settled rather than out of date.
