| Monitoring Information: | New Mexico documents court performance relevant to time standards by producing computer-generated and manual reports with information on the median time for resolution, and the % of cases resolved. Reports/summaries with time standards are received by the clerk of court and all judges, and are reviewed yearly. Case processing time standards reports are available to the public through an open records request |
| Notes: | New Mexico did not respond to the fall 2002 update request or the fall 2007 update request; therefore, this information is current as of 1999. |
