Victim Rights

Nolle prosequi or commonly known as Null process is a prosecutor's decision not to pursue charges. As a victim you have rights and one of those rights is to be privy to any plea bargain offered to someone who hurt you.

The EMT's in this story were denied that right and so much more, for the full story see Victim Rights

If you have been the victim of a crime you have rights see Crime Victim Rights by State

does not show that the above law exists to help the employee and in fact shows the commissioner is not filling this position because the NH RSA shown here  http://www.labor.state.nh.us/I-Workers%20Comp%20Laws.htm shows the law is still in existance and reports from inidviduals show that they are not filling the position; in fact denying NH residents of their rights.
