N.M. Stat. § 45-2-710
Worthier-title doctrine abolished.
The doctrine of worthier title is abolished as a rule of law and as a rule of
construction. Language in a governing instrument describing the beneficiaries of a
disposition as the transferor's "heirs", "heirs at law", "next of kin", "distributees",
"relatives" or "family" or language of similar import does not create or presumptively
create a reversionary interest in the transferor.
