Hello,

  Does the following code work for you?

{-# OPTIONS_GHC -fglasgow-exts -fallow-undecidable-instances 
-fallow-overlapping-instances #-}
data Nil = Nil
data x ::: xs = x ::: xs
infixr 5 :::

data HTrue = HTrue deriving Show
data HFalse = HFalse deriving Show

class Member x xs b | x xs -> b where member :: x -> xs -> b
instance Member x Nil HFalse where member _ _ = HFalse
instance Member x xs b => Member x (x ::: xs) HTrue where member _ _ = 
HTrue
instance Member x xs b => Member x (y ::: xs) b where member x (_ ::: xs) 
= member x xs

{-
member 'a' (() ::: "a" ::: '1' ::: Nil)  ==>  HTrue
member 'a' (() ::: "a" ::: Nil)  ==>  HFalse
-}
