Tenants should not be afraid to reach out to their landlords if their apartments are unsafe to live in. Laws such as RSA 48-A:14 require landlords to maintain certain safety standards for the health and wellbeing of their renters. https://t.co/XQCJU3RQIQ

“I’ve studied law all my life, and I did not know what a praecipe to transmit the record to the prothonotary was. I have no idea what those words mean.” Neither would someone without a law degree, presumably. https://t.co/7A06SzJHVX

This Friday, I'm filling in for @PeterBiello for the final episode of the Weekly News Roundup.

The show has always been about giving people essential info about the issues affecting N.H. communities — so we especially wanted to make space for this conversation.

Some marriage policy wonk that @olgakhazan interviewed “supports… an advantage in the division of assets and child custody to the spouse who wants to preserve the marriage.”
So, so, *so* many problems with that!
This is a good piece:

Thank you to everyone who donated during NH Gives. Together you raised $10,655 to provide access to justice to families across the state. Though we fell 20 donors short of our goal, our challenge sponsor was inspired to still make their $1,000 gift, bringing our total to $11,655!

[NH Legal Services @NH_CLS]
