N.M. Stat. § 14-14A-25
Validity of notarial acts.
Except as otherwise provided in Subsection B of Section 14-14A-3 NMSA 1978, the
failure of a notarial officer to perform a duty or meet a requirement specified in the
Revised Uniform Law on Notarial Acts does not invalidate a notarial act performed by
the notarial officer. The validity of a notarial act under the Revised Uniform Law on
Notarial Acts does not prevent an aggrieved person from seeking to invalidate the
record or transaction that is the subject of the notarial act or from seeking other
remedies based on law of this state other than the Revised Uniform Law on Notarial
Acts or law of the United States. This section does not validate a purported notarial act
performed by an individual who does not have the authority to perform notarial acts.
