Habitual Offender Statute Of Limitations

Also relevant to:Survivor (domestic or sexual violence)

Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill changes how "prior felony conviction" is defined for habitual offenders in New Mexico. It removes the current ten-year limit, meaning any past felony conviction, regardless of how old it is, can be used to increase a person's sentence if they are convicted of a new felony. This would allow older felony convictions to count towards habitual offender sentencing enhancements.
