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.[2] 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.[2]

- be the minimum age of 35;
- have practiced law for the ten years preceding assumption of office;
