3. Domestic Violence Requires a Dating Relationship, Not Just Dancing.S.K. v. J.H.___ NJ Super. ___ (App. Div. 2012) A-1358-11T2. 6-6-12
Plaintiff brought this suit pursuant to the Prevention of Domestic Violence Act, N.J.S.A. 2C: 25-17 to -35, as a result of being atrociously assaulted by defendant, who, along with plaintiff, was on a trip to Israel with approximately 40 others. In seeking to prove the existence of a dating relationship, plaintiff was able to show only that, on the evening of the assault, she and defendant sat together, danced together, and were together for a few hours at the bar. The trial court found a dating relationship and entered a final restraining order. In considering defendants appeal, the court deferred to the trial judges finding that the parties interactions constituted a date but rejected the argument that this one date constituted the dating relationship required by the act. Although the Legislature did not expressly define what it meant by a dating relationship, the court found from the majority of those other states that have defined the term that a dating relationship is a romantic social relationship, which is further defined by its frequency and duration but which excludes casual or ordinary fraternization between two individuals in a business or social context. As a result of this generally accepted meaning of dating relationship, the court held that a single date was insufficient and reversed.
