Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey

Definition of cross-motion

When one party files a Motion, (which is a request to have the Court grant certain relief) the other party has the opportunity to respond to have that Motion denied. He/she also may file a "Cross-Motion" which is a request to have the Court grant relief which is different than the request that the first party was requesting.

Keep in mind that this advice is given based on the little bit of information that you have

provided in your question. My advice may change based on other information. Further, no one

can rely on advice from an attorney who has not been retained. You cannot rely on this advice

because we have not personally met and you have not retained me as an attorney. If you have not

already done so, you should immediately meet with a Family Law attorney for a full consultation

before you take any further steps. You may feel free to call me to discuss this matter in more

detail. If you do so, mention Law Guru and your first one hour of time will be free. Good luck!
