N.M. Stat. § 54-1A-302
Transfer of partnership property.
(a) Partnership property may be transferred as follows:
(1)
subject to the effect of a statement of partnership authority under Section
303 [54-1A-303 NMSA 1978], partnership property held in the name of the partnership
may be transferred by an instrument of transfer executed by a partner in the partnership
name;
(2)
partnership property held in the name of one or more partners with an
indication in the instrument transferring the property to them of their capacity as
partners or of the existence of a partnership, but without an indication of the name of the
partnership, may be transferred by an instrument of transfer executed by the persons in
whose name the property is held; and
(3)
partnership property held in the name of one or more persons other than
the partnership, without an indication in the instrument transferring the property to them
of their capacity as partners or of the existence of a partnership, may be transferred by
an instrument of transfer executed by the persons in whose name the property is held.
(b) A partnership may recover partnership property from a transferee only if it proves
that execution of the instrument of initial transfer did not bind the partnership under
Section 301 [54-1A-301 NMSA 1978] and:
(1)
as to a subsequent transferee who gave value for property transferred
under Subsection (a)(1) and (2), proves that the subsequent transferee knew or had
received a notification that the person who executed the instrument of initial transfer
lacked authority to bind the partnership; or
(2)
as to a transferee who gave value for property transferred under
Subsection (a)(3), proves that the transferee knew or had received a notification that the
property was partnership property and that the person who executed the instrument of
initial transfer lacked authority to bind the partnership.
(c) A partnership may not recover partnership property from a subsequent transferee
if the partnership would not have been entitled to recover the property, under
Subsection (b), from any earlier transferee of the property.
(d) If a person holds all of the partners' interests in the partnership, all of the
partnership property vests in that person. The person may execute a document in the
name of the partnership to evidence vesting of the property in that person and may file
or record the document.
