Description
Argued November 30, 1999 On certification to the Superior Court, Appellate Division, whose opinion is reported at 319 N.J. Super. 53 (1999). This appeal presents the issue whether jury instructions, jury interrogatories, and a verdict sheet regarding a defendant employer's burden of production in a sex discrimination case under the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (""LAD""), N.J.S.A. 10:5-1 to -42, so confused the jury that a reversal of plaintiff's verdict was required. Plaintiff Martha Mogull worked in the Hackensack office of defendant CB Commercial Real Estate Group, Inc. (""CB"") for more than a decade. After a number of disputes about commissions owing to her, CB discharged her. In her suit, Mogull alleged that CB and a number of its employees1 had discriminated against her in her employment and in the termination of her employment, in violation of the LAD. After a seven-week trial, the jury awarded Mogull $1.5 million in compensatory damages and $5 million in punitive damages. The Appellate Division reversed the verdict and remanded for a new trial. 319 N.J. Super. 53 (1999).
