New Mexico deadlines and where a truck claim is filed
Injury cases here are generally handled through the Third Judicial District Court in Doña Ana County. New Mexico generally gives you three years to file, but a much shorter notice deadline — often about 90 days — applies when a public entity is involved. New Mexico follows pure comparative fault, and truck evidence disappears fast, so act early.
After a truck crash in Las Cruces: reporting and evidence
The New Mexico State Police handle highway crashes and commercial-vehicle enforcement. Beyond the report, a truck's data and the company's records can be overwritten within weeks, so preserving that evidence quickly is critical.
