  • 1.  Jurisdiction over application for separate maintenance

    Posted 05-24-2023 05:48 PM

    Colleagues -

    Do the NJ courts have jurisdiction for an application for separate maintenance, where the spouse seeking support is an NJ resident for less than a year? Any tips on where to find this information would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Good Morning, you can file an FD, the info and forms are on the court's website.  Let me know if you need them.
