§560:1-103  Supplementary general principles of law applicable.  Unless displaced by the particular provisions of this chapter, the principles of law and equity supplement its provisions. [L 1996, c 288, pt of §1]

 

Case Notes

 

  As no "particular provision" in chapter 560 displaces a right of access to probate proceedings and records, third parties have a right to file petitions challenging the closure of probate court proceedings or the sealing of court records under a principle of law supplementing the probate code.  106 H. 453, 106 P.3d 1096.
