"N.J. judge seems skeptical of teen’s tuition request" Associated Press March 05, 2014
MORRIS COUNTY, N.J. — A judge denied the initial request of a northern New Jersey honor student who has sued to get her parents to support her after she moved out of their home, and cautioned that the case could lead to a ‘‘potentially slippery slope’’ of claims by teenagers against their parents.
Rachel Canning had sought immediate relief in the form of $650 in weekly child support and the payment of the remainder of her tuition at Morris Catholic High School, as well as attorney’s fees.
She is Catholic? I don't think Francis would go for that.
State Superior Court Judge Peter Bogaard denied those motions but ordered the parties to return to court on April 22, when they will present evidence and testimony on the question of whether the Cannings are obligated to financially support their daughter. Rachel Canning has already been accepted by at least one college and is seeking to have her parents pay some or all of her tuition, attorney Tanya Helfand told Bogaard Tuesday.
Bogaard sounded skeptical of some of the claims in the lawsuit, saying it could lead to teens ‘‘thumbing their noses’’ at their parents, leaving home, and then asking for financial support.
‘‘Are we going to open the gates for 12-year-olds to sue for an Xbox? For 13-year-olds to sue for an iPhone?’’ he asked.

Looks like she has a touch of affluenza.
"Teen who sued parents returns home" by Samantha Henry | Associated Press March 13, 2014
ROSELAND, N.J. — The New Jersey honor student who sued to get her parents to support her after she moved out of their home has reunited with them, and the family is now asking for privacy.
Rachel Canning’s return does not involve any financial or other considerations, the lawyer for the 18-year-old’s parents said Wednesday. Angelo Sarno said that the dispute had been settled ‘‘amicably,’’ but refused to comment further on the litigation.
Sarno said Rachel Canning moved back in with her parents on Tuesday night.
Canning had left her parents’ house on Oct. 30, two days before she turned 18 after a tumultuous stretch during which her parents separated and reconciled.
Canning’s parents said their daughter left home because she didn’t want to abide by reasonable household rules and end a relationship with a boyfriend her parents say is a bad influence.
Yeah, blame the boyfriend.
