New Mexico | Traffic Law
Legal Question
I have been cited for failure to wear a seat belt in New Mexico (66-7-372 -FAILURE TO USE SAFETY BELTS). I wish to request discovery of the tape recordings of the officers involved during the traffic stop, as it will show that they were not being honest with me. Who do I need to request discovery from? and is there a particular format to use? I will be going to magistrate court for this issue. I do feel that the effort is worth my time and energy, but unsure of how to proceed. The issuing agency was the New Mexico State Police. Thanks for your help!
