State of New Hampshire v. Jonathan A. Perfetto

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Hampshire reversed the Superior Court’s order transferring Jonathan A. Perfetto to the Secure Psychiatric Unit, holding that the trial court erred in finding the defendant “insane” under RSA 651:10 and erred in finding the transfer “conducive” to health and public welfare; the Court also held that Rule 29(j) does not apply to the motion. The Court remanded for further development of the record.
