N.J. Ct. R. 4:64-8A
Administrative Conversion of Uncontested Case Into a Contested Matter
Except as otherwise provided by rule or court order, if one year after commencement of a foreclosure action the matter remains pending, the Clerk of the Superior Court may require that the plaintiff file a certification setting forth the status of the pending matter and the anticipated date of disposition. The Clerk of the Superior Court may issue an administrative order requiring plaintiff to file that certification, with the plaintiff having fifteen days to respond by filing the status certification. Where the plaintiff fails to comply with such administrative order by not filing the status certification, the Clerk of the Superior Court shall administratively transfer the uncontested matter to the General Equity judge for case management as a contested matter.
