Report Link Good News and Bad News: New Jersey Supreme Court Limits Scope of Continuing Violations Doctrine but Expands Post-Employment Retaliation Claims.Littler Mendelson, P.C. - January 29, 2010 On January 14, 2010, in a significant and rare pro-employer decision, the New Jersey Supreme Court in Fernando Roa and Liliana Roa v. LAFE and Marino Roa limited the continuing violations doctrine, which had been used by plaintiffs to expand the statute of limitations period under the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (NJLAD). In Roa, the court made clear that under the NJLAD, the statute of limitations begins to run for a discrete retaliatory act, such as a discharge, on the date the act takes place. Rejecting a tactic often employed by plaintiffs, the court held that a timely claim for post-discharge retaliation does not revive an untimely retaliation claim based on a discrete act of which the employee knew or should have known. However, the court went on to hold that discrete post-discharge retaliatory conduct, in this case the cancellation of health insurance, is independently actionable even if it does not relate to an employee's present or future employment.
