Scott Eaton v. Carin Hallum White & a.

THE STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE

SUPREME COURT

In Case No. 2018-0596, Scott Eaton v. Carin Hallum White
& a., the court on September 12, 2019, issued the following
order:

Having considered the briefs filed by the parties and the record
submitted on appeal, we conclude that oral argument is unnecessary in this
case. See Sup. Ct. R. 18(1). The defendants, Matt White and Carin Hallum
White, appeal an August 2018 periodic payment order entered by the Circuit
Court (Vetanze, J.), requiring them to pay a July 2017 $8,341.04 judgment in
monthly installments of $200. We affirm.

On appeal, the defendants challenge the underlying 2017 judgment and
what occurred at a hearing that they assert was scheduled as a contempt
hearing. Because those arguments are not properly before us in this appeal,
we decline to address them. As the appealing parties, the defendants have the
burden of demonstrating reversible error. Gallo v. Traina, 166 N.H. 737, 740
(2014). Based upon our review of the trial court’s August 2018 periodic
payment order, the defendants’ appellate arguments, the relevant law, and the
record submitted on appeal, we conclude that the defendants have not
demonstrated reversible error. See id.

Affirmed.

Hicks, Bassett, Hantz Marconi, and Donovan, JJ., concurred.

Eileen Fox,
Clerk
