MANCHESTER,N.H.- The New Hampshire Supreme Court says it will hear arguments in Adam Montgomery’s appeal of his 2023 conviction murder.

According to court documents Montgomery, who’s currently serving more than 50 years in prison after being found guilty of murdering his daughter Harmony, and possessing stolen weapons will have his case heard this fall. However it should be noted that his daughter’s body was never found.

Lawyers for Montgomery claim that he should of been tried separately on assault charges from an alleged attack on Harmony in 2019 and that his wife, Kayla Montgomery, should not have been allowed to testify about Harmony’s abuse. Montgomery’s attorneys also claims that Police body camera footage shown to jurors violated his right to remain silent.

Montgomery’s case is scheduled to go before the court on October 15th.
