New Mexico Research
Types of Research
Research of New Mexico Statutes Annotated (NMSA) or New Mexico Administrative Code (NMAC) can be accomplished for $650.00 per enactment or administrative action and be available in approximately two weeks. If you need bill history research sooner than two weeks, the fees would be $750.00 per bill. Call us at (800) 666-1917 for a free fee quote.
If your code section of interest has a long and complicated annotated history, we can trace the language for a fee. We would include our trace report and our recommendation. For more information about tracing please visit our explanation on our FAQ page.
Types of Materials You Can Expect
For NMSA, our research generally includes, but is not limited to, the enacting bill and all of its amended versions, House and Senate committee reports, House and Senate committee studies, fiscal impact reports, legislative council service concordance, information bulletin of the New Mexico Legislative Counsel Service, annual reports, final reports, interim reports, and Senate and House Journal excerpts, along with background information, such as relevant competing and prior legislation. Typically, we work with the enacting state entity, such as the state legislature or relevant state agency.
Regulatory research is provided two ways:
1) tracing of the language to its original adoption; and
2) obtaining the regulatory file maintained by the agency on the rulemaking.
