Afscme v. Bd. of Cty. Comm'Rs of Bernalillo Cty.

Summary

The New Mexico Supreme Court held that AFSCME’s declaratory‑judgment action failed to meet the jurisdictional prerequisites of the state Declaratory Judgment Act because the claims were not ripe and the union lacked an injury‑in‑fact, so the district court lacked jurisdiction; the Court vacated the Court of Appeals decision and remanded for dismissal.
