New Mexico dissolutions are district court cases filed in the county where a spouse resides and kept by the clerk of the district court. Rule 1-079 NMRA, as amended effective December 31, 2025, makes court records subject to public access unless sealed, and domestic relations cases are not among the proceedings the rule seals automatically. The sworn Interim Monthly Income and Expenses Statement, 4A-212, and the Community and Separate Property and Debts Schedules, 4A-214 and 4A-215, are served on the other party and not filed, so the public file holds the petition, the Notice of Compliance with Rule 1-123, interim orders, the Marital Settlement Agreement, 4A-301, which divides the property and debt, and the Final Decree.

New Mexico Courts Case Lookup covers electronic records from all New Mexico courts, and the file is inspected at the clerk's office. Sealing is by motion under Rule 1-079 and requires written findings of an overriding interest, that the interest supports sealing, a substantial probability of prejudice, narrow tailoring and no less restrictive means. The New Mexico asset search page explains what the settlement agreement and decree reveal.
