Supreme Court of New Hampshire

In re J.M.

December 20, 20242024 N.H. 70

Summary

The Supreme Court affirmed the circuit court’s orders, holding that the father waived his service‑of‑process challenge by not immediately appealing the denial of his motion to dismiss, that the neglect finding was supported by sufficient evidence, and that the court did not abuse its discretion in keeping the child in out‑of‑home placement. The Court also clarified the procedural rule governing appeals of personal‑jurisdiction dismissals.
