267 N.J. Super. 88 (1993)

630 A.2d 835

IN THE MATTER OF THE ADOPTION OF A CHILD BY N.E.Y.

Superior Court of New Jersey, Chancery Division, Union County, Family Part.

Decided April 13, 1993.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Steven I. Sklar, for petitioner N.E.Y.


WHITKEN, J.S.C.

This matter involves an issue not yet decided by the courts of New Jersey as to whether an adoption can be finalized when the potential adoptive parent has died subsequent to the preliminary court hearing but prior to the final hearing required for a private placement adoption. For the reasons expressed hereafter I find that there is no authority for such adoption under New Jersey Law and therefore the adoption cannot be granted.
