Issues on Appeal
The following summaries of the issues on appeal have been prepared by clerk’s office staff for the convenience of the public. The Supreme Court has neither approved nor reviewed any of the summaries. The parties’ filings and the applicable record — not these summaries — define and establish the issues that the Supreme Court will consider in a case. Please note that, in the interest of brevity, some issues in a listed case may have been combined or not summarized. In these summaries, “Rule Type” refers to the particular Supreme Court Rule under which the case has been docketed. “Type” and “Subtype” refer to the case type and case subtype, as determined in accordance with the definitions in the State Court Guide to Statistical Reporting, a publication of the Court Statistics Project (a joint project of the National Center for State Courts and the Conference of State Court Administrators).
Whether the trial court erred by not dismissing the Claremont School District (District) as the legally liable school district under RSA 169-C:20 when the record demonstrates that the child was not a legal resident of the District, which exempts the District from liability for the child’s special education program development, monitoring, and costs. Whether the trial court erred by not dismissing the District as the legally liable school district under RSA 169-C:20 when the record demonstrates that the child was court-placed in an out-of-district placement outside of New Hampshire, which exempts the District from special education liability because there is no receiving school district or sending school district as defined by RSA 193:27 and RSA 193:29.
