54:50-22. Reproduction admissible in evidence
If the Division of Taxation, in the regular course of business or activity has kept or recorded any State tax return, report, application, payment, memorandum, writing, entry, print, representation or combination thereof, or any act, transaction, occurrence, or event, and in the regular course of business has caused any or all of the same to be recorded, copied, or reproduced by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, micro-card, miniature photographic, or other process which accurately reproduces or forms a durable medium for so reproducing the original, the original may be destroyed in the regular course of business. Such reproduction, when satisfactorily identified, shall be admissible in evidence as the original in any judicial or administrative proceeding, whether or not the original exists or is available, and an enlargement or facsimile of the reproduction shall be likewise admissible in evidence if the original reproduction is in existence and available for inspection under the direction of the court. The introduction of a reproduced record, enlargement, or facsimile into evidence shall not preclude the admission into evidence of the original. This section shall not be construed to exclude from introduction into evidence any document or copy thereof which is otherwise admissible under the New Jersey Rules of Evidence.
