Rule 1-046 NMRA
Rule 1-046. Preserving questions for review.
Length: 137 wordsOfficial source
Formal exceptions to rulings or orders of the court are unnecessary. It is sufficient
that a party, at the time the ruling or order of the court is made or sought, makes known
to the court the action which he desires the court to take or his objection to the action of
the court and his grounds therefor; and if a party has no opportunity to object to a ruling
or order at the time it is made the absence of an objection does not thereafter prejudice
him. It shall not be necessary to file a motion for a new trial in order to preserve for
review errors called to the attention of the trial court under this rule.
This rule applies to all causes, whether tried before a jury or to the court without a
jury.
