"TRENTON — The New Jersey Supreme Court is soon expected to render a critically important decision on school finance, a decision that may be clouded by the reduced number of justices hearing the case and questions of why some members of the panel disqualified themselves from sitting in judgment and why one — Associate Justice Helen Hoens, whose husband works for the governor — did not.
'This is a very tricky set of circumstances,' says Robert Williams, a professor at Rutgers Law School in Camden who studies state constitutional law. 'A lot is at stake.'"
