New Hampshire bankruptcy filings in March shot up by over 50 percent from February, but they were still down a bit from March 2016, with no long-term trend emerging this year thus far.
There were 210 bankruptcy filings in March, a 53 percent increase over February, but the total was still seven fewer than March 2016.
There were six business-related filings in March, one less than last year. One was an individual who filed due to business-related debt, but five businesses filed themselves. All of them were for liquidation, not reorganization.

• SST Realty Trust, Goffstown, filed March 2, Chapter 7. Assets and liabilities: $100,000 to $500,000.
• Interpro Construction and Property Solutions LLC, Manchester, filed March 21, Chapter 7. Assets and liabilities: less than $50,000
