N.M. Stat. § 19-7-63
Current through 2024, ch. 69
Refunds shall be made hereunder, of any money erroneously distributed to any permanent fund, only out of that part of the state lands maintenance fund distributable to that beneficiary into whose permanent fund the erroneous distribution was made. Provided, however, in the event the fund distributable to a beneficiary for the current fiscal year is insufficient to pay an approved refund, a temporary loan may be made to that beneficiary from that part of the maintenance fund as represents receipts for fees and copies. Such loans are repayable from distributable funds allocated to the beneficiary for the following fiscal year.
