How long does a firm have to operate under a general licensee after the owner's death?

30 days.
60 days.
90 days.
120 days.

The correct answer is: 30 days.

In New Jersey, if a licensed funeral director who owns a funeral home passes away, the funeral home is granted a limited allowance to continue its operations under the general license. This time frame is specifically set at 30 days. During this period, the firm can continue its operations while arrangements are made to transition the ownership or obtain new management. The provision ensures that the funeral home can provide continuity of services during a challenging time while respecting the need to address licensing and management changes in accordance with state regulations. This is a critical aspect of maintaining public trust and ensuring that funeral services remain available to the community.
