Dependable Container Service, Inc. v. New Jersey Turnpike Authority

Per Curiam.

The New Jersey Turnpike Authority is so plainly and clearly a public entity within the meaning of that term as defined in N. J. S. A. 59 :l-3, as to leave no room for construction. See N. J. S. A. 27:23-1 et seq. Consequently, the present action — a subrogation action in which the insurer of the plaintiff is the real party in interest — is barred by the express proscription contained in the New Jersey Tort Claims Act. N. J. S. A. 59:9-2(e).

Affirmed.
