Karen W. Cooper, Plaintiff-Appellant v. Norton J. Cooper, Defendant-Respondent

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey reversed the Appellate Division and remanded for a new hearing, holding that under N.J.S.A. 9:2-2 the custodial parent must show a real advantage and that the move is not inimical to the children’s best interests, and then the court must consider three additional factors—including visitation feasibility—before permitting relocation.
