Supreme Court of New Hampshire

Katherine R. Brady v. Lawrence P. Sumski, Chapter 13 Trustee

August 17, 2023

Summary

The New Hampshire Supreme Court answered the certified question whether RSA 480:1 requires ownership for a homestead right, holding that ownership is required and a non‑owning spouse has no separate vested right. It declined to answer the second question concerning manufactured housing because it was not determinative of the pending case. The court remanded the matter.
