N.M. Stat. § 42-9-32
[Issues found for defendant; attachment dismissed;
properties released; suit unabated.]
In all cases commenced by attachment, in which the truth of the affidavit for
attachment, or of any material allegation therein contained shall be denied, and the
issue thus formed shall, upon the trial be found for the defendant, the attachment shall
be dismissed and all property, rights, effects and credits held or affected thereby, or
thereunder, shall be released and discharged from the operation thereof; but such
dismissal of the attachment shall not abate the suit, but the same shall proceed as in
ordinary cases.
