CONCORD — The state Supreme Court on Friday found in favor of seven retired judges by ruling that a 2005 change to judicial pension law was unconstitutional because it breached the judges’ contracts by decreasing their pensions during their employment.
The opinion by the state’s highest court finds that the judges were vested the day they were appointed and changing the terms of their pension benefits was unconstitutional. The case was brought to the Supreme Court by retired probate court judge Raymond Cloutier, who in 2008 said his pension was erroneously calculated by use of new pension law, not the law in place when he first took the bench.
Attorney General Michael Delaney, in Supreme Court filings, previously accused the seven judges of gaming the retirement system.
