The Inspection of Public Records Act (IPRA) is a New Mexico state law that provides the public and media access to public information. The law requires open access to almost all public records in state and local government, with few exceptions.

Filing Motions A motion must be in writing and must specifically state the grounds for the motion and the relief sought. The party filing the motion (the ?movant?) must request concurrence of each party at least three working days before filing the motion.

Whenever counsel undertakes to represent a defendant in any criminal action, he will file a written entry of appearance in the cause, unless he has been appointed by written order of the court. For the purpose of this rule, the filing of any pleading signed by counsel constitutes an entry of appearance.

Most documents in federal courts ? appellate, district, and bankruptcy ? are filed electronically, using a system called Case Management/Electronic Case Files (CM/ECF). The media and public may view most filings found in this system via the Public Access to Court Electronic Records service, better known as PACER.
