This Is Not a Court or Government Office. This is a private reference site. We cannot retrieve dockets, change or reset a court date, remove or seal a case, issue certified copies, or provide legal advice. Direct those needs to the court or clerk that maintains the record.
Need an Official Docket or Record?
Use the following official routes for common Colfax County court-record questions:
- District or magistrate case information: begin with New Mexico Case Lookup. Search by a full case number when possible, or narrow a name search to the correct court and location. A result is a locator, not a substitute for an official copy.
- A district-court docket, register of actions, filed record, or certified copy: contact the Eighth Judicial District Court Clerk. The clerk is the record keeper for Colfax district-court files, not the Colfax County Clerk's administrative-records office.
- A hearing date or setting: review the Eighth Judicial District calendar, then confirm with the responsible clerk or Trial Court Administrative Assistant because published judge calendars are tentative and may change without notice.
- Raton or Springer Magistrate Court case: contact the magistrate clerk that holds the case. Raton Magistrate Court is at 1413 S. Second St., Raton, at 575-445-2220. Springer Magistrate Court is at 15 Airport Road SW, Springer, at 575-483-2417. The official magistrate court listing distinguishes those state-court locations.
- A municipal citation, ordinance case, or city traffic matter: contact the municipal court for Angel Fire, Cimarron, Eagle Nest, Raton, or Springer. Municipal dockets are maintained separately, and New Mexico Case Lookup has limited municipal coverage. The New Mexico municipal court directory is the official contact starting point.
- Documents available through registered access: use re:SearchNM if eligible. What can be viewed depends on registration, user profile, and the case-access rules.
- A formal records request or a record not available through the public portal: use the New Mexico Courts IPRA request portal, select the responsible court location, and describe the requested record with reasonable particularity. The Administrative Office of the Courts is not the custodian of every local case file.
