Breest v. Perrin

Supreme Court of New Hampshire

Decided November 13, 1984No. 84-170PublishedCited by 12 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtBrock, J.

In this habeas corpus proceeding, the plaintiff, Robert Breest, seeks to set aside his conviction for first degree murder on various grounds. The Superior Court (O’Neil, J.) dismissed the petition after reviewing the entire record, including the transcript of the plaintiff’s trial. We find no error and affirm.

The instant petition is one in a long series of appeals and habeas corpus petitions filed by this plaintiff in State and federal courts since his conviction in March 1973. See, e.g., State v. Breest, 124 N.H. 339, 469 A.2d 1339 (1983); Martineau v. Perrin, 119 N.H. 529, 404 A.2d 1100…
