Senate confirms Christopher Struben to New Jersey Superior Court
Summary
The Senate confirmed Christopher Struben to serve as a judge of the New Jersey Superior Court and several judicial nominations were confirmed by recorded machine tally earlier in the session.
The New Jersey Senate confirmed Christopher Struben to the Superior Court during its floor session in April 2025 after the chamber recorded the confirmation of judicial nominations earlier in the meeting.
Why it matters: Superior Court judges preside over significant civil and criminal matters in state trial courts; the confirmation places a long-practicing trial lawyer onto the bench.
What the record shows: Earlier in the session the presiding officer announced that the nominations had received 39 affirmative votes and declared them confirmed. A senator introduced Christopher Struben on the floor, described him as an experienced trial lawyer with decades of service and readiness to assume the bench, and congratulated him on his confirmation. The transcript does not contain a verbatim on-the-record roll-call vote specifically naming Struben separate from the batch nomination tally; the presiding officer announced the overall confirmation result and then recognized the nominee.
Procedure and next steps: Following the confirmation announcement, the Senate completed routine business and recessed briefly; the confirmed nomination will proceed to the usual post-confirmation steps for judicial appointees.
Ending: Colleagues congratulated Struben on the floor; the session continued with other legislative business.
