Overview: Part of N.M. Stat. § 35-15-11, allowing a city to appeal from a municipal court to a district court only when the municipal court held an ordinance unconstitutional or a complaint insufficient, was without force because that provision invalidly abridged a city's right to a district court appeal under N.M. Const. art. VI, § 27.
