American Dream Mall Challenges Paramus Blue Laws in Sunday Shopping Dispute

The American Dream Meadowlands mall in East Rutherford is operating on Sundays despite Bergen County's longstanding Blue Laws that restrict Sunday retail sales, leading to a legal dispute with Paramus. The NJSEA, which leases the land to the mall, supports the mall's operation and has filed a motion to dismiss most of Paramus's lawsuit, arguing that Paramus lacks standing and that the lease does not require enforcement of Blue Laws.
