For NJ-covered persons under N.J.S.A. 56:8-166.1 + analogous state-law requestors (NY judiciary, etc.)
New Jersey’s Daniel’s Law (P.L.2020 c.125 + 2023 amendments) allows certain “covered persons” — active and retired judicial officers, prosecutors, law enforcement officers, child-protective investigators, code enforcement officers, and their immediate family — to request that their home address be removed from public-information sources.
Submit this form to record a removal request. RegWatch will action the request within 10 business days of receipt (N.J.S.A. 56:8-166.1 SLA). We honor analogous requests from NY/CT covered persons under the same SLA where applicable, even when the source statute doesn’t formally extend.
Note: RegWatch does not collect NJ owner names at the source layer — NJ MOD-IV strips them statewide so most NJ-property requests are already structurally honored. This form covers analogous requests for NY (where ACRIS contains owner names) and any RegWatch-cached NJ data that may pre-date the source redaction.

Daniel’s Law applies to commercial publishers and data brokers. We honor it as broadly as state law permits. Some surfaces — public-records databases that we re-index from official agency feeds, where the agency itself publishes the name — may require us to suppress derivative renderings while the source continues to publish. We do not control the source.
Daniel’s Law allows a covered person to seek a court order requiring compliance plus damages of $1,000 per violation, plus actual damages, punitive damages, and attorneys’ fees(N.J.S.A. 56:8-166.4(b)). RegWatch takes these requests seriously; the 10-business-day SLA above is non-discretionary.
