NJ Rev Stat § 47:4-2 (2016) What's This?

47:4-2. Address confidentiality for victims of domestic violence
47:4-2. The Legislature finds that persons attempting to escape from actual or threatened domestic violence frequently establish new addresses to prevent their assailants from finding them. The purpose of this act is to enable public agencies to respond to requests for public records without disclosing the location of a victim of domestic violence, to enable interagency cooperation with the Secretary of State in providing address confidentiality for victims of domestic violence, and to enable public agencies to accept a program participant's use of an address designated by the Secretary of State as a substitute mailing address.
