Rule 25 of the New Hampshire Supreme Court Rules, which has no application in a mandatory appeal, allows any party in a discretionary appeal to file a motion for summary disposition within twenty days of the filing of the appeal. An objection is due ten days later. Generally speaking, it will be the state relying on this procedure, not a criminal defendant pursuing an appeal. If the state, however, brings an appeal that the defendant thinks is frivolous, the defendant may file a motion for summary disposition.Legal Research-Special Challenges in DWI Cases
