NJ A783

Allows defendants to file a motion for dismissal with prejudice of civil actions related to real estate after a lis pendens notice has been discharged for at least six months due to plaintiff's failure to prosecute or failure to establish probability of favorable judgment

Courts may grant dismissal when plaintiffs continue to fail to diligently prosecute their case after the six-month waiting period following lis pendens discharge

Amends N.J.S.2A:15-10 to add this new dismissal mechanism as an additional remedy beyond the existing ability to discharge lis pendens notices

Takes effect immediately and applies to both new actions and pending cases that have not yet been finally adjudicated

Aims to provide property owners faster relief from meritless claims by creating an expedited path to permanent case dismissal
