New Jersey A672 authorizes compensation for businesses closed due to public health emergencies.

New Jersey A672 allows businesses to seek just compensation for losses due to closures caused by public health emergency orders. This includes loss of income during and after a temporary closure, or loss of the business itself if the owner proves the closure led to going out of business. The business owner must prove the loss was due to the emergency and the amount of compensation. The bill applies to emergencies declared on or after January 1, 2020, and actions for compensation must be filed within a year of the emergency order's expiration.
