Jurisdiction context

Not a civil service jurisdiction

This department is not among the NJCSC Appendix A jurisdictions, so major discipline here follows a different statutory track (generally N.J.S.A. 40A:14), with appeals that usually go to the Superior Court rather than the Civil Service Commission.

See the context on non-civil-service departments.

In brief

The Franklin Township Police Department - Somerset County is a municipal police agency in Somerset County. No sworn officer count was reported for the agency, and no internal affairs investigation totals were available. Without an officer count, an investigations-per-100-officers rate cannot be computed.

Thirteen major discipline records appear in the 2020 through 2025 releases, 1 of them a termination. The site does not grade the agency. With no reported officer count it falls into no peer group, and there is too little reported data to assign a standing.
