According to SenateNJ.com, on January 28, 2013, Legislation (S-1051/A-634) was
signed into law by Governor Christie, which provides additional protections for
parents who are U.S. Service Members. The law prohibits our courts from
modifying or amending any child custody or parenting time order or judgment
while the service member parent is deployed, unless it is in the best interest
of the child. More, the law provides that whenever our courts are required to
make a determination concerning child custody or parenting time, they will not
consider the service member parent’s
absence or potential absence away from the child due to deployment, as a factor
when determining the best interest of their child.
