Throwing error should output JSON

I am developing a REST API using the latest CakePHP.  I was under the impression (from a presentation I watched on YouTube from CakeFest 2010) that I could throw an error and have it return the error as JSON to the client by adding a json direction below /app/View/Errors and adding the appropriate error file (i.e. error400.ctp) in that directory.  The API itself is working (i.e. if I call /tenants/30.json it returns the tenant with id 30 as json).  However, when I throw a NotFoundException it is outputting the HTML template under /app/View/Errors/error400.ctp instead of the json template under /app/View/Errors/json/error400.ctp.

What do I have to do to get it to output the json template?
