Full text of New Jersey New Jersey Statutes § 56:12-4, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 56:12-4.
In addition to the remedies provided in this act, a court reviewing a consumer contract
may reform or limit a provision so as to avoid an unfair result if it finds that: a. a material provision of the contract violates this act; b. the violation caused the consumer to be substantially confused about any of the
rights, obligations or remedies of the contract; and c. the violation has caused or is likely to cause financial detriment to the consumer. If the court reforms or limits a provision of a consumer contract, the court shall
also make orders necessary to avoid unjust enrichment. Bringing a claim for relief pursuant to this section does not entitle a consumer
to withhold performance of an otherwise valid contractual obligation. No relief shall be granted pursuant to this section unless the claim is brought
before the obligations of the contract have been fully performed.
