General Equity - Should You Be Here and What Should You Do Now that You Are Here?
Equity court jurisdiction in New Jersey seems murky for practitioners who don’t frequent those courts. Equity courts provide remedies where the strict application of law falls short. The Chancery Division’s General Equity Part hears a wide range of complex cases—including injunctions, foreclosures, specific performance, fiduciary disputes and other matters where money damages alone cannot provide justice.
This program offers a practical overview of the jurisdiction, procedures and substantive issues commonly encountered in general equity courts. You will learn whether you should be in the Chancery Division and what to do when you get there. Topics include:
- How equitable remedies differ from legal remedies
- Key types of cases handled in the General Equity Part
- When to transfer a case from the Law Division to the Chancery Division
- Strategies for presenting and defending equitable claims
Additional speakers and program details will be announced soon.
