Supreme Court of New Hampshire

In re H.C.

November 14, 2023

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Hampshire affirmed the lower court’s termination of the mother’s parental rights, holding that RSA 170-C:5, VII(d) applies even though H.C. was not born at the time of the assault and that the statute covers out‑of‑state convictions when the offending conduct is equivalent to the New Hampshire offenses, and it found no error in the trial court’s best‑interest determination.
