Supreme Court of Rhode Island

Peter Marcucci v. Jennifer Marcucci

March 3, 2025

Summary

The Supreme Court of Rhode Island dismissed Peter Marcucci’s appeal of the July 13, 2023 final divorce judgment as untimely. The Court held that an appeal must be filed within twenty days of the decision pending entry of final judgment, not after the final decree is entered. Consequently, the Court did not address the substantive constitutional and statutory challenges raised by the plaintiff.
