N.M. Stat. § 40-6A-604
Choice of law.
A. Except as otherwise provided in Subsection D of this section, the law of the
issuing state or foreign country governs:
(1)
the nature, extent, amount and duration of current payments under a
registered support order;
(2)
the computation and payment of arrearages and accrual of interest on the
arrearages under the support order; and
(3)
the existence and satisfaction of other obligations under the support order.
B. In a proceeding for arrears under a registered support order, the statute of
limitation of this state or of the issuing state or foreign country, whichever is longer,
applies.
C. A responding tribunal of this state shall apply the procedures and remedies of
this state to enforce current support and collect arrears and interest due on a support
order of another state or a foreign country registered in this state.
D. After a tribunal of this or another state determines which is the controlling order
and issues an order consolidating arrears, if any, a tribunal of this state shall
prospectively apply the law of the state or foreign country issuing the controlling order,
including its law on interest on arrears, on current and future support, and on
consolidated arrears.
