Maddy summaryThe New Jersey Servicemembers' Civil Relief Act creates comprehensive protections for military members serving on active duty and their dependents. Key provisions include automatic stays of civil proceedings during service, a 6% interest rate cap on pre-service debts, protection against evictions and lease terminations, and employment protections upon return from service. The act also includes specific safeguards for insurance coverage, limits enforcement of judgments during service, and allows servicemembers to seek relief from financial obligations affected by military service. This legislation repeals the previous New Jersey Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1979 and aligns state protections with federal law.

Prioritizes distribution of 9-1-1 System and Emergency Response Trust Fund monies; permits use of funds for certain expenses incurred by counties and municipalities for the provision and maintenance of 9-1-1 emergency services.
Maddy summaryThis bill changes how New Jersey's 9-1-1 System and Emergency Response Trust Fund distributes money. It explicitly allows the fund to cover costs incurred by counties and municipalities for 9-1-1 services - including training, operating expenses, and equipment - expanding current eligibility. The bill also adds a prioritization rule: funds must first go to county, regionalized, or large centralized 9-1-1 centers before other local providers. This ensures critical 9-1-1 operations receive funding first, without creating new taxes or spending.
