State of New Hampshire v. Stephen Girard

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Hampshire affirmed the trial court's denial of the defendant's motion to sever the indecent exposure, computer misuse, and witness‑tampering charges, finding the joinder was supported by the Brown factors. It also clarified the "essential and reasonably necessary" standard for in‑camera review of privileged counseling records and remanded for further review of those records as they may relate to the indecent exposure charges.
