The New Jersey teenager who sued her parents for not paying her college tuition moved back into their home – but still hasn’t dropped the lawsuit, a lawyer for her parents said on Wednesday.
Rachel Canning, 18, returned to her parents’ house in Lincoln Park on Tuesday night, said attorney Angelo Sarno, who represents Sean and Elizabeth Canning.
“I’m not here to comment on what the motivation is for this event. She’s just a kid and she’s home,” Sarno said at a press conference on Wednesday afternoon.
But while the family may have hashed-out some of its emotional problems — which blew up after the teen voluntarily moved out last fall — the legal conflict is still “pending,” Sarno said.
The deal is that the lawsuit is still pending…There has never been a settlement,” Sarno added.

Rachel had been living with a powerful attorney, John Inglesino, a father of one of her friends, since October.
She moved out of her parents’ home because she didn’t want to abide by a curfew or stop hanging out with a bad-influence boyfriend , her parents have claimed.
