Supreme Court of New Jersey

Adrienne E. Petersen, Plaintiff-Respondent v. Russell Petersen, Defendant-Appellant

April 21, 198185 N.J. 638

Summary

The Supreme Court affirmed that an alimony and child support escalation clause incorporated in a divorce judgment is not void per se, but its enforcement requires a trial‑court determination of fairness under changed circumstances. The Court remanded for such an inquiry.
