Thomson vetoes class action bill and land surveyor measure
New Hampshire Governor Meldrim Thomson vetoed two House bills. One would set procedures for class actions in state courts, which Thomson called costly and fueling mass litigation by minorities. The other sought changes to land surveyor registration, including exam options and reduced training requirements, a move Thomson endorsed as diluting the statute. The surveying board opposed the amendments, warning they would undermine the law.
