In Montells v. Haynes, 133 N.J. 282, 627 A.2d 654 (1993), the Court expressly recognized that in determining the applicable limitations period "our focus is on the nature of the injury, not the underlying legal theory of the claim." Id. at 291, 627 A.2d 654. At issue was whether the six-year or two-year statute applied to a claim under New Jersey's Law Against Discrimination (LAD). There, plaintiff relied specifically on language in the six-year statute covering "tortious injury to the rights of another not stated in section 2A:14-2." The Court defined the difference between the two statutes: The question becomes whether injuries under LAD are more like an "injury to the person" under N.J.S.A. 2A:14-2 or like injuries under N.J.S.A. 2A:14-1, specifically those arising from breach of contract or from "any tortious injury to the rights of another not stated in sections 2A:14-2. . . ." In separating "injury to the person" from "tortious injury to the rights of another," the Legislature essentially distinguished personal injuries involving physical or emotional harm from those involving economic harm. Accordingly, courts have viewed "tortious injury to the rights of another" as applying primarily to actions for economic loss. Id. at 291, 627 A.2d 654.
