Scenes from 2009 Annual Meeting
Check out slide show of photos from 2009 NHBA Annual Meeting at which Jim Tenn took office as NHBA  President. Read news release.

The NHBA Ethics Committee is publishing two new opinions:

Drafting Lawyer Acting as Fiduciary for Client
Analysis of attorneys' responsibilities when asked by client to serve as fiduciary in a document being prepared by that attorney, especially in light of recent changes to NH Rules of Professional Conduct regarding "informed consent" and potential conflicts. Opinion #2008-09/1.

Remedial Measures Under Rule 3.3
Answering the question: "What remedial mesures, if any, are required when an attorney knows that misleading or false information has been submitted to a tribunal?" Opinion #2008-9/3.
 

The new state budget calls for higher court fees in a number of areas. The court's announcement explains that the new fees will contribute more to the General Fund; among the changes is a dedicated fund for court automation improvements. The budget includes funding to fill the current judicial vacancies, including the vacancy created by Judge Conboy's appointment.

See Bar News budget update for lineup of district court sites slated for possible closure.      
 
♦ Fees, Taxes in the New Budget - Union Leader - 6/25 
♦ Keene District Court Called 'Unsafe - Keene Sentinel - 6/25  
♦ Claremont District Court Won't Close This Year - Claremont Eagle Tribune -6/22
