Pike Industries, Inc. v. Hiltz Construction, Inc.

Supreme Court of New Hampshire

1Opinion of the CourtThayer, J.

This case arises out of an action for contribution brought by the plaintiffs, Liberty Mutual Insurance Co. and Pike Industries, Inc. (Pike), against Hiltz Construction, Inc. (Hiltz) in which the Superior Court (Smukler, J.) ruled in favor of the plaintiffs in the amount of $75,000. Hiltz presents two issues for our review.

Second, Hiltz asserts that the court erred in its computation of the amount of contribution. We affirm.
