N.M. Code R. § 20.11.82.25

Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 12, June 25, 2024
Section 20.11.82.25 - MOTIONS
A. General: All motions, except those made orally during a hearing, shall be in writing, specify the grounds for the motion, and state the relief sought. Each written motion shall be accompanied by an affidavit, certificate or other evidence relied upon, and shall be filed and served as required by 20.11.82.16 NMAC.
B. Unopposed motions: All unopposed motions shall state that the concurrence or agreement of all other parties was obtained. The party that filed the motion shall submit to the hearing officer for review a proposed order that has been approved by all parties.
C. Opposed motions: All opposed motions shall state either that concurrence or agreement of all other parties was sought and denied, or why concurrence was not sought. A memorandum brief in support of an opposed motion may be filed with the motion.
D. Response to motions: a party upon whom an opposed motion is served shall have 15 days after service of the motion to file a response. Any other party who fails to file a timely response shall be deemed to have waived any objection to the granting of the motion.
E. Reply to response: The moving party may submit, but is not required to submit a reply to any response within 10 days after service of the response.
F. Decision regarding motions: Motions may be decided by the hearing officer, in the hearing officer's sole discretion, without a hearing. Within five days after being served with a copy of the motion, a party upon whom service has been made may file a written request asking that a hearing be held. A procedural motion may be ruled upon before the expiration of the time for response. Any response regarding a procedural motion received after the decision is made shall be treated as a request for reconsideration of the ruling. However, the hearing officer shall refer all motions that would effectively dispose of the petition to the board for a decision.
