Supreme Court of New Hampshire

In the Matter of Sean Braunstein and Jericka Braunstein

February 13, 2020

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Hampshire affirmed the trial court’s final decree, holding that federal law does not preempt the inclusion of a veteran’s disability benefits as income for child support and that the trial court’s discretionary rulings were reviewed under an abuse‑of‑discretion standard and upheld. The court also found the petitioner’s constitutional property claim insufficiently developed to merit review.
