New Mexico Criminal Law and Procedure with Forms

New Mexico Criminal Law and Procedure with Forms brings together the law and practical guidance needed to prepare and manage criminal cases in New Mexico state courts. Its eleven chapters cover criminal offenses and procedure, motion practice, arraignment and bail, plea bargaining, discovery, competency, trial, evidence, and sentencing. The publication combines statutory and rule text with explanatory discussion and more than 200 Practice Notes. These notes help practitioners recognize recurring issues involving deadlines, procedural choices, factual investigation, evidentiary foundations, and preservation for review. Coverage addresses practice in district, magistrate, metropolitan, and municipal courts, helping readers identify the requirements applicable to the particular proceeding. A Forms Appendix contains 51 selected NMRA criminal forms covering appearances, charging documents, warrants, subpoenas, release conditions, pleas, discovery, trial preparation, competency evaluation, sentencing, and appeal. An index provides an additional route to the publication’s substantive and procedural coverage.
