New Jersey Superior Court Appellate Division June 26, 2012 (Greenberg v. Pryszlak)

The opinion of the court was delivered by

FISHER, P.J.A.D.

In this appeal, we consider whether the trial judge erred in summarily dismissing plaintiffs claims of, among other things, false imprisonment, false arrest, federal and state constitutional violations, and common law torts, in connection with his arrest by a New Jersey State trooper based on suspicion that he had passed a bad check.
