Curtis v. Kline

After his divorce, a father (plaintiff) petitioned to terminate support for his college-age children. Pennsylvania's Act 62 authorized courts to order separated, divorced, or unmarried parents-but not married parents-to contribute to their children's post-secondary educational expenses.

Whether Act 62 violates equal protection by requiring only separated, divorced, or unmarried parents, but not married parents, to contribute to children's post-secondary educational expenses.
