View this case - free  

Overview: Because the trial court improperly removed the requirement of expert testimony from the assessment of liability for negligent infliction of emotional distress, and because the individual claims would control the litigation, the trial court erred in certifying liability for class certification under N.H. Super. Ct. R. 27-A(a)(2).

View this case - free  

Overview: Although N.H. Const. pt. I, art. 15 was violated when the police exerted control over defendant in a manner that limited his freedom and subjected him to a custodial interrogation without being informed of his Miranda rights, the charging of three discrete patterns of sexual assault under RSA 632-A:2(III) did not run afoul of double jeopardy.

View this case - free

View this case - free  

Overview: State supreme court answered a certified question by ruling that no posthumously conceived child was a "surviving issue" within the plain meaning of the intestacy statute, RSA 561:1 (2007), and thus the subject child, who was conceived by artificial insemination after the father's death, was not a surviving issue.

View this case - free  

Overview: A trial court erred in granting property owners' tax abatement applications pursuant to RSA 76:16 (Supp. 2006), as their claim that the education property tax was disproportionate was not supported by evidence that their property was assessed at a higher percentage of fair market value than that generally assessed in the State.

View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court erred in granting summary judgment to petitioners on a claim that an agency improperly required counties to pay a share of the cost of providing Medicaid-funded long-term care to recipients of public assistance, because the term "nursing home" did not limit the applicability of RSA 167:18-b(I) to residential care facilities.

In re Estate of Sharek, No. 2006-441, SUPREME COURT OF NEW HAMPSHIRE, August 22, 2007, Opinion Issued
View this case - free  

Overview: Judgment was affirmed as RSA 551:13(II) was properly applied retrospectively to revoke former wife's interests in former husband's will as wife's expectation of taking under will was not vested right, and testator's purported "right" to name residuary beneficiary was no more vested than devisee's or legatee's expectation of taking under will.
