Marilyn V. Marchant, as Administrator of the Estate of Robert Marchant v. Harbour Women's Health, P.A. & a.

THE STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
SUPREME COURT
In Case No. 2015-0497, Marilyn V. Marchant, as
Administrator of the Estate of Robert Marchant v. Harbour
Women's Health, P.A. & a., the court on April 13, 2016, issued
the following order:
Having considered the briefs and record submitted on appeal, we conclude
that oral argument is unnecessary in this case. See Sup. Ct. R. 18(1). We affirm.
The plaintiff, Marilyn V. Marchant, as Administrator of the Estate of Robert
Marchant, appeals an order of the Superior Court (Delker, J.) granting summary
judgment in favor of the defendants, Harbour Women’s Health, P.A. (HWH), Mark
Chag, M.D., and Albert Lantinen, M.D. The plaintiff argues that the trial court
erred by finding that: (1) the decedent’s agreements with HWH do not require the
defendants to pay the estate a share of the refund that HWH received from the
New Hampshire Medical Malpractice Joint Underwriting Association; and (2) she
was not entitled to attorney’s fees.
As the appealing party, the plaintiff has the burden of demonstrating
reversible error. Gallo v. Traina, 166 N.H. 737, 740 (2014). Based upon our
review of the trial court’s well-reasoned order, the plaintiff’s challenges to it, the
relevant law, and the record submitted on appeal, we conclude that the plaintiff
has not demonstrated reversible error. See id.Affirmed.
Dalianis, C.J., and Hicks, Conboy, Lynn, and Bassett, JJ., concurred.

Clerk
