N.M. Code R. § 11.5.5.604 – Request for Admissions

A. Request: At any time after docketing of the case, any party may serve upon any other party a written request for the admission of any relevant facts set forth in the request, including the genuineness of any document. Each fact as to which admission is requested shall be set forth separately. A copy of any document referred to in the request shall be attached to the request as an exhibit, unless the document is already in the record. If the document is already in the record, it will be referred to with sufficient particularity to enable the party to whom the request is directed to identify the document with reasonable certainty.
B. Response: Each fact as to which admission is requested shall be deemed admitted unless, within ten (10) days after service of the request, or within such other period as the hearing officer may order upon motion and for good cause, the party to whom the request is directed serves upon the requesting party a written response specifically denying such fact.
