| | Cavuoti v. New Jersey Transit Corp. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20) |
 | | After Cavuoti filed an internal grievance with NJT in 1993 alleging discrimination, his superintendent, Deborah Finn, told him that employees are not to file such grievances, that those who do will face problems, and that he had to get her approval before contacting the Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Office again. |
 | | NJT argues that Finn, as Superintendent of the Raritan Valley Line, and Smith, as General Superintendent of the Newark Division, cannot be considered a part of NJT's "upper management" such that their conduct may be used to impose punitive damages upon NJT. |
 | | There is ample precedent in New Jersey to support the proposition that, when a statute has been judicially construed, the failure of the Legislature subsequently to act is evidence of legislative acquiescence in the construction given to the statute. |
