Rule 11-101 Scope of rules.

These evidence rules set the guidelines for what proof can be used in New Mexico courtrooms. They cover things like what testimony, documents, or objects can be shown to a judge or jury during a case.

The rules apply broadly across the state's court system, but there are some exceptions. Rule 11-1101 spells out specific situations where these evidence rules don't fully apply, such as certain types of hearings or proceedings. So if you want to know exactly when and where these rules kick in, you'd need to check that companion rule for the full picture.
