The Supreme Court Will Re-Visit Health Club Waivers of Liability

The Supreme Court announced that it has granted certification in Pulice v. Greenbrook Sports & Fitness, LLC.  The question presented in that appeal, as phrased by the Supreme Court Clerk’s Office, is “Did the trial court properly dismiss plaintiffs’ complaint seeking damages for injuries suffered at defendant’s health club based on the waiver signed by Maria Pulice?”  Relying on the Supreme Court’s decision in Stelluti v. Casapenn Enters., 203 N.J. 286 (2010), the Law Division granted summary judgment to the defendant health club and the Appellate Division, in an unpublished per curiam opinion, affirmed.  Now the Supreme Court will weigh in.
