Nicholas Impink v. David Reynes

11-29-07 A-3448-06T5

We decided in this case that a trial court may not modify a
settlement agreement using its parens patriae powers without the
consent of the parties in approving an infant settlement
pursuant to Rule 4:44-3. Instead, it may reject the settlement
if it finds it not to be "fair and reasonable as to its amount
and terms."
