- Decision Date: 1982

- Synopsis: A local county welfare board reduced respondent's Food Stamp benefits because of income from educational grants and a work-study program. The administrative law judge assigned to the case determined that educational reimbursement for books and transportation are not nor- mal living expenses and are thus excludable from income. In addition, the judge determined that respondent's college is the grantor of her educational grant and as such was entitled to earmark funds for educational expenses. Accordingly, the administrative law judge ordered that the Board's decision be reversed. Gerald P. Burke, Esq., for petitioner Donald Ackerman, Esq. for respondent (Camden Regional Legal Services, attorney)
