Commissioner of Welfare v. Richter

286 A.D. 1068, 145 N.Y.S.2d 617, 1955 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 5170

Opinions

Memorandum by the Court.

The order appealed from should be affirmed, without costs. We construe the provisions of subdivision 2 of section 69 of the New York City Criminal Courts Act that support may be ordered after the child reaches the age of sixteen years “ for good cause shown ” to require the showing of some unusual or exceptional circumstance. We view the continuance of a high school education as an ordinary circumstance and not within the statutory provision. We pass upon no other question.
