Compiler's notes. — The New Mexico congressional districts adopted in Jepsen v. Vigil-Giron, D-0101-CV-2001-02177 (N.M. 1st Jud. Dist. January 8, 2002) and set forth in Section 1-15-15.1 NMSA 1978, were held to be malapportioned and therefore unconstitutional in Egolf v. Duran, D-101-CV-2011-02942 (N.M. 1st Jud. Dist. January 25, 2012). The redistricting plan embodied in this section was adopted by that court. The section number was assigned by the compiler.

With regard to the precinct designations and boundaries used by the court in Egolf v. Duran, D-101-CV-2011-02942 (N.M. 1st Jud. Dist. January 25, 2012), to establish congressional districts, the court's order provided that "Precinct designations and boundaries used in this order are those precinct designations and boundaries established in accordance with law and approved by the Secretary of State as of August 31, 2011 for use in the 2011 redistricting process".
