    James P. DAY et al. v. STATE TAX ASSESSOR.
    Supreme Judicial Court of Maine.
    Argued: Oct. 24, 2007.
    Decided: March 4, 2008.
    Michael L. Sheehan, Esq. (orally), Jonathan G. Mermin, Esq., Preti, Flaherty, Be-liveau & Pachios, LLP, Portland, ME, for James P. and Philomena T. Day and Gregory B. and Jayne D. Thornton.
    G. Steven Rowe, Atty. Gen., Thomas A. Knowlton, Asst. Atty. Gen. (orally), Augusta, ME, for State Tax Assessor.
    Panel: SAUFLEY, C.J., and ALEXANDER, LEVY, SILVER, MEAD, and GORMAN, JJ.
   PER CURIAM.

[¶ 1] James P. and Philomena T. Day and Gregory B. and Jayne D. Thornton (taxpayers), some of whom are members of a New Hampshire limited liability company, appeal from a judgment of the Superi- or Court (Kennebec County, Harden, J.) affirming the decision of the State Tax Assessor to deny the taxpayers a credit, pursuant to 86 M.R.S.A. § 5217-A (Supp. 2002), against their Maine individual income taxes for taxes the LLC paid to New Hampshire under that state’s business profits tax. The taxpayers argue that the court erred when it determined that plain readings of the relevant Maine and New Hampshire statutes support the decision of the State Tax Assessor to deny the taxpayers a tax credit in Maine for business profits taxes paid to New Hampshire. Because the Court is evenly divided, we affirm the judgment. Hale v. Antoniou, 2008 ME 52, 820 A.2d 586.
