First, your argument seems premised, in part, on some distinction between “wrongful death” as a cause of action and “negligence” as a cause of action. Read the statute (N.J. Stat. § 2A:31-1), there’s no real difference. Wrongful death is the cause of action, negligence is the underlying legal...

I never heard that particular term in law school. I did, however, learn that attacking the messenger instead of the message was a tool of the ill informed. If you want to play lwayer, go read his case and then explain, using the facts and law from that and related cases, why the cite he uses...
