The Governor’s Office just issued a press release saluting the Court’s decision on Abbott v. SFRA (see post below) and squabbling with Judge Doyne’s ruling that there be a three-year transitional period to ensure enough funding for the Districts-Formerly-Known-As-Abbotts. Says Corzine,

While Judge Doyne makes clear his view of the formula conforms to New Jersey’s constitution, I don’t agree that the record supported the Judge’s recommendation that the Abbott districts be allowed to apply for supplemental funding, at least for the first three years of the implementation of the new formula, and we will seek to convince the Supreme Court otherwise.
