NJ Clarifies Appeal in Altice Prorating Case

New Jersey will appeal only the March 23 decision by U.S. District Court in Newark that the state Board of Public Utilities may not require Altice to prorate bills, the attorney general’s office said (in Pacer) Tuesday at the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The state voluntarily dismissed its 2020 appeal of the district court’s earlier ruling denying reconsideration of a temporary injunction. The 3rd Circuit last week consolidated the state’s two appeals (see 2104230051).
