Legal Opinion

B.H. v. State

New Jersey Superior Court Appellate Division

Decided June 3, 2008Published

1Opinion of the Court

The opinion of the court was delivered by

CUFF, P.J.A.D.

B.H. appeals from a final agency determination that she no longer qualifies for Work First New Jersey/Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (WFNJ/TANF) benefits for her family because she also receives benefits from the Subsidized Adoption Program (SAP)1 for her two adopted children. We reverse that *423decision because the instruction issued by the agency governing her and similarly situated families is effectively a rule and it was not promulgated in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), N.J.S.A. 52:14B-1 to -15.
