Introduced Text

New Jersey S1388 prohibits health club services contracts from limiting liability for injuries caused by negligence of the health club.

New Jersey S1388 amends existing law to ensure that health club services contracts cannot limit the health club's liability for injuries caused by negligence. The bill also outlines specific contract terms, including a three-day cancellation period, conditions for contract extension or refund in case of facility closure, and a prohibition on automatic renewal. The bill is intended to codify Justice Albin’s dissent in the case of Pulice v. Green Brook Sports & Fitness, 236 N.J. 1 (2018).
