Summary

The Supreme Court of New Hampshire affirmed the Superior Court’s denial of earned time credits to Michael Jordan, holding that the statute grants broad discretion to sentencing courts and that such discretion may consider the nature of the offense and victim impact. The Court rejected the defendant’s arguments on statutory interpretation, the applicability of ejusdem generis, and an equal‑protection claim.
