State high court gives Gov. Martinez first legal setback (Listen)
New Mexico's Supreme Court has handed Gov. Susana Martinez' administration its first legal set back. The high court ruled today that state officials had no business obeying the governor's order to put certain environmental rules on hold for further study. The court said the state records administrator didn't have the authority to delay publishing the rules while the governor studied them to determine whether they are friendly to business.
KSFR's Marion Cox was there. She spoke with Bruce Frederick of the New Mexico Environmental Law Center about the ruling and asked lawyer Paul Kennedy with the Martinez administration if this would affect future Martinez actions. Listen. © Copyright 2012, KSFR
