CONCORD — Gov. Chris Sununu and Attorney General Gordon MacDonald announced that the State of New Hampshire will argue to the U.S. Supreme Court that it should not overrule existing precedent regarding the collection of state taxes on e-commerce purchases.

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear the arguments in the case, South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc., which will open a review of the precedent established by a 1992 decision in Quill Corp. v. North Dakota, that ruled states could only require out-of-state sellers to collect state taxes if the seller also had a physical presence in the state.
