Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by CLIFFORD, J. We granted certification, 130 N.J. 13 (1992), to decide whether New Jersey should recognize a ""surveillance location privilege,"" under which the State can refuse to disclose the exact location from which law-enforcement officers observe criminal activity. We hold that Evidence Rule 34, the ""official information privilege,"" permits the State to withhold that information in appropriate circumstances. Because the Appellate Division correctly determined that the circumstances in this case justified non-disclosure of the surveillance location, we affirm.
