VETO
Veto
Message of Governor John H. Lynch
Regarding
Senate Bill 88
By the authority vested in me, pursuant to part II,
article 44 of the New Hampshire Constitution, on July 1, 2009, I vetoed Senate
Bill 88, an act relative to the recommendations of marital masters.
I am vetoing Senate Bill 88 because marital masters
are not judicial officers within the meaning of the State Constitution and I
believe this bill would vest marital masters with the characteristics of a
judicial officer.
In 2007, the Supreme Court requested the
introduction of Senate Bill 112 to allow the recommendations of marital masters
to become final absent review and signature by a judge, unless a party
requested review of the decision by a judge within 10 days. The Senate questioned the constitutionality
of the Supreme Court’s proposed legislation and passed a resolution asking the
Supreme Court to issue an advisory opinion addressing the constitutionality of
SB 112. The Supreme Court ruled that SB
112 was unconstitutional because marital masters are not judicial officers
within the meaning of the State Constitution and are only authorized to make
recommendations that have no binding force upon the court. Opinion of the Justices, 155 NH 524
(2007).
In its decision, the Supreme Court stated that it
would not opine on whether the constitutional infirmity of SB 112 could be
cured if parties to the case consented in advance to marital masters entering
final judgment without the participation of a judge. Then, during this session, the Supreme Court
requested the introduction of SB 88.
This bill would allow marital masters to enter final judgment absent
approval by a judge if the parties to the case consented in advance to the
arrangement. The general court did not
ask the Supreme Court to opine on the constitutionality of SB 88.
If marital masters are not judicial officers under
the State Constitution and cannot make recommendations that have binding force
upon the court, I question why the advance consent of parties to a case can
override the requirements of the State Constitution. I also question the wisdom of asking our
citizens to assume the additional responsibility and potential burden, during
stressful cases in the family division, of deciding whether to allow a marital
master to act as a judge.
Presently, under state law, the administrative judge
of the judicial branch family division, with the concurrence of the supreme
court, nominates marital masters for appointment by governor and council. Under the State Constitution, judges are
nominated and appointed by the governor and council. If the desire is to have marital masters
enter final judgments in court, the appropriate remedy would be to have them
nominated and confirmed as judicial officers are appointed.
Respectfully
submitted,
