Legal Issues
- Was there sufficient evidence to support the district court's determination that the vehicles were community property?
- Did the Respondent owe a separate debt on the SUV?
Disposition
- The New Mexico Court of Appeals affirmed the district court's final decree (para 4).
Reasons
Per Duffy J. (Attrep C.J. and Medina J. concurring): The Court of Appeals found that the Respondent failed to provide new facts or legal authorities to challenge the proposed summary disposition. The Respondent did not meet the burden of clearly pointing out errors in fact or law as required in summary calendar cases. The court held that the evidence was sufficient to support the district court's findings regarding the vehicles and the debt (paras 3-4).
