New Mexico Marijuana Lawsuits in State or Federal Court
NM cannabis lawsuits can be filed in state or federal court. Selecting a jurisdiction is generally based on: 1) whether all parties inhabit New Mexico, and 2) the severity of marijuana-related injuries.
New Mexico State Cannabis Claims
When all parties reside in New Mexico, cannabis lawsuits of any magnitude can be filed in the State’s county courts (NM Courts Website). The New Mexico State Rules of Civil Procedure sets forth the State’s procedural law for mental health claims attributed to dispensary marijuana.
The State of New Mexico follows a pure comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, a New Mexico cannabis lawyer can recover damages for wrongful conduct by growers and dispensaries even if the plaintiff is up to 99% at fault. However, the dispensary victim’s financial award may be reduced by their own degree of fault (if any).
10th Circuit Cannabis Claims in New Mexico
New Mexico is part of the Tenth Circuit of the federal court system, and individual cannabis lawsuits can be filed at its local U.S. District Court. Marijuana dispensary appeals are heard by the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals.
Provided the psychological harm is severe, cannabis claims can be filed in this court against growers and dispensaries nationwide.
However, federal marijuana lawsuits filed in New Mexico may be transferred to a centralized jurisdiction pursuant to a mental health Multi-District Litigation (MDL) Transfer Order. (Follow this link for our additional information on 10th Circuit cannabis compensation.)
