40:75-45. Superior Court assignment judge to sit on election day; action to insure fair election

In order to more fully carry out the spirit of this article and to prevent the failure of the recall election by reason of any conflict of laws, inadequacy of law, dispute, misunderstandings, or other cause, the Superior Court assignment judge of the county in which the municipality is located shall have power upon an application by the agent, municipal clerk, incumbent or nominee, to make any order or regulation which in his judgment is necessary or convenient to enable a fair and impartial recall election to be held and such order or regulation shall be final.

Such applications shall be heard in a summary manner and without notice. On the day of the recall election the said assignment judge shall attend in some public place in the municipality, and then and there make any such additional order as may be necessary to carry out the recall election.

Amended by L.1953, c. 37, p. 735, s. 244, eff. March 19, 1953.
