Review by Superior Court

8. Any county investigator who has been tried and convicted of any charge or charges, and is employed by a prosecutor in a county where Title 11A (Civil Service) of the New Jersey Statutes is not in operation, may obtain a review thereof by the Superior Court. Such review shall be obtained by serving a written notice of an application therefor upon the party or board whose action is to be reviewed within 10 days after written notice to the investigator of the conviction. The party or board shall transmit to the court a copy of the record of such conviction, and of the charge or charges for which the applicant was tried. The court shall hear the cause de novo on the record below and may either affirm, reverse or modify such conviction. If the applicant was removed from his office, employment or position, the court may direct that he be restored to such office, employment or position, and to all his rights pertaining thereto, and may take such other order or judgement as the court deems proper. Either party may supplement the record with additional testimony subject to the rules of evidence.
