Bill overview
This bill requires New Jersey hospitals to obtain approval from the Department of Health (DOH) before a landlord can initiate an adverse possessory action, such as eviction or termination of a lease. An adverse possessory action without DOH approval would be considered invalid. The DOH will establish a process for landlords to request approval, and hospitals could seek financial recovery from landlords if an unauthorized action negatively impacts their operations. Landlords who violate the bill could face significant civil penalties and license suspension or revocation.
