N.M. Sup. Ct. Order and Rules for E-Filing in the Supreme Court I
Demand for original; electronic conversion of paper documents
(1) Original paper documents filed or served electronically, including original
signatures, shall be maintained by the attorney filing the document and shall be made available,
upon reasonable notice, for inspection by other parties or the Court. If an original paper
document is filed by electronic transmission, the electronic version of the document shall
conform to the original paper document. Attorneys shall retain original paper documents until
final disposition of the case and the conclusion of all appeals.
(2) For cases in which electronic filing is mandatory, if an attorney who is
exempt under Paragraph M of this rule or a self-represented party files a paper document with the
Court, the Court clerk shall convert such document into electronic format for filing. The filing
date shall be the date on which the paper document was filed even if the document is
electronically converted and filed at a later date. The Court clerk shall retain such paper
documents as long as required by applicable statutes and Court rules.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
