New Jersey A3447 prohibits courts from awarding custody or limiting visitation based on disability, age, health status, sexual orientation, gender.
New Jersey A3447 amends the state's child custody laws to ensure courts do not base custody or visitation decisions solely on a parent's disability, age, health status, sexual orientation, gender identity, race, or ethnicity. The court must provide detailed findings if these factors are considered. The bill emphasizes the importance of both parents having equal rights and the child's best interests. It also mandates that courts consider various factors, including the child's interaction with parents and the stability of the home environment.
