Petition of New Hampshire Division of State Police

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Hampshire affirmed the Superior Court’s order compelling the New Hampshire Division of State Police to produce a pre‑employment background investigation file, holding that the trial court did not err in ordering production without a subpoena because the Division received adequate notice and opportunity to be heard, and that RSA 516:36, II does not bar discovery of the file as it does not pertain to an internal investigation of a law‑enforcement officer.
