Overview
This bill modifies the Truth-in-Consumer Contract, Warranty, and Notice Act (TCCWNA) in New Jersey. It requires consumers who seek to sue for violations of the act to demonstrate they have suffered an ‘ascertainable economic loss’ of at least $250. The bill also establishes a process where consumers must first request reimbursement from the seller or involved party before filing a lawsuit for smaller economic losses, and outlines procedures for handling counterclaims and potential attorney’s fees.
