Christie proposed the cuts last May to try to plug a $2.7 billion state revenue shortfall projected through fiscal 2015. However, the Superior Court of New Jersey in Mercer County ruled against the plan, which was to cut $1.6 billion in pension contributions for this fiscal year.
“The court cannot allow the State to ‘simply walk away from its financial obligations,’ especially when those obligations were the State’s own creation,” the court said.
