In a Decision – A.C. v. C.D., (an "Unreported Decision") >> the Court Held:
The Appellate Division reversed the Trial Court decision and concluded that the parent was entitled to custody even if they owe child support.
The Appellate division concluded that the trial judge erred by allowing the children's aunt to retain residential custody – which she obtained temporarily only as a result of the chaos triggered by the domestic violence incident and its aftermath – instead of conducting a plenary hearing to explore whether it was better for the children to live with their father. We, thus, remand for a plenary hearing.
