Supreme Court of New Hampshire

State of New Hampshire v. Nestor Roman

December 28, 2023

Summary

The New Hampshire Supreme Court affirmed Nestor Roman’s convictions, holding that the defense—not the State—opened the door to the nurse’s expert testimony under the curative admissibility doctrine and that the trial court’s discretion in admitting that testimony was not an abuse. The Court found the nurse’s testimony admissible, limited in scope, and not unduly prejudicial.
