    And if the AG will not defend her from the law suits, then it is probably a pretty safe bet that he will not prosecute any offenders that are arrested. Maybe local prosecutors would, IDK. If you are arrested by state police are prosecuted by a local or state prosecutor?

    The only DA in the state is impacted by this order (the order only applies in Albuquerque and Bernadillo county) has said he won’t prosecute.

    In research, I still haven’t confirmed the state’s Dept of Health has an actual way to implement enforcement of “civil administrative penalties” mentioned in the order.

    In New Mexico on April 7th of 2021 a New Mexico Civil Rights Act was signed by the Governor.

    Oddly it removed Qualified Immunity for government officials, allowing citizens to sue them.

    As far as I know, the Governor is a government official and has no qualified immunity and citizens affected can sue her as an individual for violating their rights.

    If I lived in New Mexico, I would make sure to dive to one of the areas, take a photograph at a known place/site, and then hire a lawyer to sue her and encourage others to do the same as individuals suing her as an individual.

    It will be epic and historic.

    Maybe the outrage will get her recalled, though I doubt it as NM is another blue/commie state.
    Just get her tied up in civil law suits filed by individuals. She signed away qualified immunity. The Government works less than 250 days a year. So if 1000 NM citizens file law suits and they could have 4 trials a day (stretching it, and each trial is 2-3 court dates) it would tie up the Governor for 4 years at least and she might have to pay for her own transportation and legal fees every day out of pocket. In a few weeks she would be broke, in a month she would be indebted and we could see who tried to cover her legal fees and paid her to pass an unjust law.

    Imagine having no qualified immunity, because you signed it away, and then you become the poster child.

    "...to pass an unjust law."

    Calling this totalitarian move 'a law' is far too generous...banana republic move is a tad more accurate.

    Governors and mayors gloming onto the rubric of some sort of 'emergency' that grants them dictatorial power is transparent and unconstitutional and worthy of them being removed from office and maybe, just maybe see prison time, that is, if justice is served...

    Somebody has to enforce it before anybody cam challenge qualified immunity. One reason most heads of LE agencies have given for not enforcing it is the fear of those suits tying LEOs up in courts for years.

    They know the practicality of getting the governor on the hook is low to nil anyways. The way the law is written in the individual state employee who does the enforcement action is who gets hung. The pols crafted it smartly to keep themselves out of the line of fire while making it look like they can be held liable.

    Shitbags. Each and everyone of them.

    Fed judge issues a stop order, for a 30 day stop order. Hmm. Silliness. Pretty much always passed thru NM anyway.

    The stage was set for this crap when Ray Nagin & Gov. Cuomo both got away with much lesser charges than their real terrible crimes called-for.
