New Jersey § 18a:6-18

§ 18a:6-18.

If any tenured professor, associate professor, assistant professor, instructor, supervisor,

registrar, teacher or other person employed in a teaching capacity or any other tenured

officer or employee in any State college, county college or industrial school or any

other officer of employee of the college or school who is subject to dismissal only

in the manner prescribed by subarticle B of article 2 of chapter 6 of Title 18A of

the New Jersey Statutes, is suspended pending the determination of any charge against

him, other than for an indictment under the laws of the United States or the State

of New Jersey, and should the determination of the charge not be made within 180 days

after it is filed with the board of trustees of said college or school, excluding

all delays which are granted at the request of such person, the full salary (except

for said 180 days) of such person shall be paid beginning on the 181st day until a

determination by the board of trustees is made. If the charge is dismissed, the person shall be reinstated immediately with full

pay from the first day of the suspension. If the charge is dismissed and the suspension is continued during an appeal therefrom,

then the person's full pay or salary shall continue until the determination of the

appeal. However, the board of trustees shall deduct from the full pay or salary any sums

received by way of pay or salary from any substituted employment assumed during the

period of suspension. If the charge is sustained on the original hearing or an appeal therefrom, and the

determination is appealed, then the salary suspension may be continued, reinstituted

or instituted unless and until the determination is reversed, in which event the suspended

person shall be reinstated immediately with full pay as of the time of suspension. If the charges are sustained, the employer may recover any salary which was paid

to the employee during the period of suspension.
