So you are saying that PA has a law that requires people to pay for college for their kids?

About 17 States have laws that required that DIVORCED (non-custodial) parents pay for college.

New Jersey is one of those states.

With this case, the corrupt attorneys are going to try to expand that right to MARRIED parents.

Wooo Boy. This could be the break DIVORCED parents need to end their nightmare.

Once MARRIED parents are brought into the nasty court system, perhaps the laws will change.

For Pennsylvania:

“Pennsylvania no longer recognizes a statutory cause of action for post-secondary educational support. 23 Pa.C.S. §4327(a), was ruled unconstitutional in 1995 by the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania in the Curtis vs. Kline case. However, contractually based agreements for post-secondary educational support contained in marital separation agreements are enforceable.

No statute or case law holding parents to a duty to college support in the absence of an agreement. contractually based agreements for post-secondary educational support contained in marital separation agreements are enforceable. See Curtis v. Kline, 542 Pa. 249, 666 A.2d 265 (1995).”
