  • 1.  Parenting Coordinator

    Posted 05-16-2016 11:49 AM

    Hello,

    We are thinking of selecting a parenting coordinator in the Hamilton (Mercer) area of New Jersey and are looking for recommendations.  Also, does anyone have any good forms outlining the power of a parenting coordinator?

    Any replies on or off list much appreciated.

    Thanks,

    "In April 2007, the Administrative Office of the Courts issued a notice to the bar pertaining to the PC Pilot Program.  Notice to the Bar: Parenting Coordinator Pilot Program - Program Guidelines and Related Material, 188 N.J.L.J. 169 (Apr. 9, 2007), available at http://www.judiciary.state.nj.us/ notices/2007/n070403a.pdf; see also Milne v. Goldenberg, 428 N.J. Super. 184, 205 (App. Div. 2012) ("The Guidelines explain [that] a court may appoint a PC to facilitate the resolution of day to day parenting issues that frequently arise within the context of family life when parents are separated . . . [and] unable to resolve these issues on their own."  (citation and internal quotation marks omitted)).  The Supreme Court terminated the pilot program effective November 26, 2012, although judges may continue to appoint PCs.  Notice to the Bar: Parenting Coordinators - Conclusion of Pilot Program, 210 N.J.L.J. 854 (Dec. 3, 2012), available at http://www.judiciary. state.nj.us/notices/2012/n121126a.pdf."
