New Jersey S3337 amends child support order enforcement to file a lien only when the judgment amount equals or exceeds one month's child support.

New Jersey S3337 modifies the enforcement of child support orders by specifying that the Probation Division can file a child support judgment as a lien only if the judgment amount equals or exceeds the amount of child support due for a one-month period. This change aims to prevent the automatic creation of a lien for obligors making timely payments but appearing in arrears due to timing discrepancies.
