Supreme Court of New Jersey

Gaynell Gac, Plaintiff-Respondent v. Paul Gac, Defendant-Appellant

May 18, 2006186 N.J. 535

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey held that the non‑custodial father is not required to pay his estranged daughter’s college loans because a fair balancing of the Newburgh factors, including the lateness of the request, weighs against liability. The Court also ruled that the first Newburgh factor is not a threshold factor and declined to decide the constitutional claim presented.
