The New Jersey Supreme Court heard arguments this week in a case that may clarify the scope of a 2005 decision that expanded the potential liability for spectator injuries. At issue in the case is the extent of a sports venue's duty to protect fans from injury, particularly during pre-game warm-ups. The plaintiff in the case was seated outside of the protected area behind the goals when she was injured by a flying puck during the warm-up period, when about 50 pucks were in use.
