§ 31-3-10 NMSAAdministrative Hold Other

Warrant (Outside Lc/Within Nm)

Legal Definition

A warrant issued by a court or magistrate in another New Mexico jurisdiction (outside the arresting county but within the state) for a person's arrest. The warrant commands any peace officer to take the person into custody and bring them before the issuing court to answer for an alleged offense or court order violation. This is an administrative hold based on another jurisdiction's active warrant, not a separate substantive criminal charge.

Possible Punishment

No independent penalty. The person is held pending transfer to the jurisdiction that issued the warrant, where they will face the underlying charge or proceeding specified in the warrant. Bond and conditions are typically set by the issuing court.

Local Context

This code reflects an out-of-county (but in-state) warrant detainer. The person may be extradited within New Mexico under the Uniform Criminal Extradition Act or released on bond as determined by the issuing jurisdiction. The underlying offense for which the warrant was issued governs any eventual penalty.

Holds, Warrants, and Procedural Bookings

Not everything in a jail roster is a fresh local crime. This category covers procedural bookings: fugitive-from-justice holds for other states, probation and parole violations, courtesy holds for other agencies, and catch-all offense codes. The person may face no new Doña Ana County charge at all.

Failure-to-appear and bench-warrant bookings are the most common procedural entries in our data. They resolve through the court that issued the warrant, which is why the fastest path out usually runs through a motion to quash rather than anything that happens at the jail.
