Terms of Use

These terms apply to use of the privately operated Eddy County Court Docket reference resource. Official New Mexico court records, court dates, and clerk decisions remain under the authority of the court that maintains them.

No FCRA Use. This is a private resource, not a government agency, court, private investigation firm, or consumer reporting agency. It and any advertising partner are not offered for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other Fair Credit Reporting Act purposes.

1. What This Website Is

This is an independent reference resource. It has no connection to a government office or court and does not keep official dockets or case files. It cannot retrieve court records, file documents, or change a hearing setting.

Its function is to identify the official routes for Eddy County court information: the appropriate court clerk, New Mexico Case Lookup, the Fifth Judicial District, and related court resources. The Eddy County District Court Clerk’s Office, not the Eddy County Clerk’s recording office, is the District Court docket custodian.

2. Informational Use Only

Material here is general information, not the official docket, a court order, or legal advice. New Mexico Rule 1-079 NMRA and the Inspection of Public Records Act, NMSA 1978 Sections 14-2-1 through 14-2-12, govern access to court and public records through the appropriate custodian. Confirm a fact that matters with the court clerk or court that holds the case.

3. Rules for Using This Site

By using this resource, you agree not to:

  • Violate federal, New Mexico, or local law.
  • Use information to harass, threaten, or stalk another person.
  • Use any material for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or other FCRA-regulated decisions.
  • Attempt to access systems or data without authorization.
  • Use bots, scrapers, or other automated tools against the service.
  • Interfere with access for other visitors.

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

This resource is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and does not produce consumer reports, background reports, or credit reports. Neither it nor its advertising partners provide services intended to assess a person for employment, tenancy, insurance, credit, licenses, permits, government benefits, or another FCRA-regulated purpose. You agree not to use information from this resource or a linked tool for:

  • A decision to hire, retain, or terminate a person.
  • A housing or tenancy decision.
  • A creditworthiness or insurance determination.
  • A decision about licenses, permits, or government benefits.
  • Any other use regulated by the FCRA.

Use an appropriate FCRA-compliant provider for a report required for one of those purposes.

5. No Legal Advice

Nothing here gives legal advice. A page may describe an Eddy County court process, but it cannot explain how a charge, order, deadline, or filing applies to a particular person. Consult a licensed New Mexico attorney for that advice.

6. Accuracy Is Not Guaranteed

Information is offered as available and without a promise of completeness, timeliness, or uninterrupted operation.

  • Court contacts, procedures, hours, and fees may change.
  • Pages and tools can have errors, outages, or security issues.
  • Third-party search results may be incomplete or mismatched.
  • Content may not reflect a recent filing, reset, sealing order, or disposition.

Dockets change as cases are filed, continued, dismissed, amended, or sealed. Verify any entry or court date directly with the court that holds the case before relying on it.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links may lead to clerk pages, court portals, statewide tools, legal-aid materials, or outside services. Each destination controls its own content, availability, practices, and charges. Review its terms before using it; no responsibility is accepted for that third-party material.

8. Intellectual Property

The text, graphics, logos, and code in this resource belong to Eddy County Court Docket or applicable content partners. They may not be copied, distributed, changed, or used to create derivative work without written permission.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the extent allowed by law, no liability is accepted for damages arising from use of this resource, reliance on its information, or use of a linked service.

10. Indemnification

You agree to protect and hold this resource harmless from claims, demands, or legal actions caused by your use of it or a violation of these terms, including reasonable related legal costs.

11. Governing Law

These terms are governed by New Mexico law. A dispute arising from use of this resource must be brought in a court located in New Mexico where the law permits.

12. Changes to These Terms

These terms may be revised at any time. Revised terms take effect when posted here.
