Trespass
RSA 635:2 — entering or staying where one knows one is not licensed or privileged to be
A person is guilty of criminal trespass who, knowing they are not licensed or privileged to do so, enters or remains in any place.
Who handles this in New Hampshire: legal aid programs, lawyer referral and the state offices, listed in the New Hampshire directory.
It is a misdemeanor where it takes place in an occupied structure, and in the other cases the section lists, among them entering or remaining after being told to leave.
Damage over $1,500. Criminal trespass that knowingly or recklessly causes more than $1,500 in damage to another's property is a misdemeanor for a first offense and a class B felony for a later one.
