Derricotte v. Derricotte

NOT FOR PUBLICATION WITHOUT THE APPROVAL OF THE APPELLATE DIVISION Argued March 19, 2002 The issue presented by this appeal is whether the Roller Skating Rink Safety and Fair Liability Act (the Act), N.J.S.A. 5:14-1 to -7, confers immunity upon a roller skating rink operator for negligently instructing a person how to roller skate. We conclude that the Act does not govern a claim arising out of alleged negligence in connection with a skating lesson. Therefore, we reverse the dismissal of plaintiff's complaint.
