New Mexico’s Inspection of Public Records Act guarantees its residents the right to seek out, acquire, and utilize records kept by government bodies, including arrest records, court records, marriage and divorce certificates, and records of traffic transgressions, and this privilege extends to the citizens of Tularosa. These records contain titles, dates, specifications on incidences, sentences, proceedings and much more, and are all assumed public unless otherwise stated. Both regulators and criminals can be held accountable for their conduct as a result of these laws, which provide the populace with the resources they require to explore problems outside of their government.
