Selection method
- See also: Partisan election of judges
The 10 judges of the New Mexico Court of Appeals are chosen by assisted gubernatorial appointment. A new appointee must stand in the next partisan election after his or her appointment. If a sitting judge wishes to serve additional terms, he or she must compete in an uncontested retention election and receive at least 57 percent of the vote.[3] In the event of a midterm vacancy, the governor appoints a replacement from a list of qualified candidates recommended by the judicial nominating commission. The newly appointed judge must run in the next general election to serve out the remainder of the unexpired term. To win further full terms, the judge must stand for retention by voters thereafter.[3]
Qualifications
To serve the court of appeals, a judge must:
- be the minimum age of 35;
- have practiced law for the ten years preceding assumption of office;
- be a state resident of at least three years preceding assumption of office.[3]
Selection of the chief judge
The chief judge of the court of appeals is selected by peer vote to serve a two-year term.[3]
