George Sideris v. Coca-Cola Bottling Company of Northern New England & a.

THE STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE

SUPREME COURT

In Case No. 2024-0083, George Sideris v. Coca-Cola Bottling
Company of Northern New England & a., the court on October
11, 2024, issued the following order:

The court has reviewed the written arguments and the record submitted on
appeal, and has determined to resolve the case by way of this order. See Sup. Ct.
R. 20(2). The plaintiff, George Sideris, appeals an order of the Superior Court
(Ignatius, J.), issued following a hearing, granting summary judgment in favor of
the defendant, Coca-Cola Bottling Company of Northern New England,1 on his
claim for employment discrimination. The plaintiff advances numerous
undeveloped arguments challenging the trial court’s decision. As the appealing
party, the plaintiff has the burden of demonstrating reversible error. Gallo v.
Traina, 166 N.H. 737, 740 (2014); see also State v. Blackmer, 149 N.H. 47, 49
(2003) (explaining that issues raised without developed legal argument do not
warrant appellate review). 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 and affirm the court’s decision. See Gallo, 166 N.H. at 740; Sup.
Ct. R. 25(8).

Affirmed.

MacDonald, C.J., and Bassett, Donovan, and Countway, JJ., concurred.
