Description
At issue in this case is the extent to which trial courts in New Mexico are bound to follow the local rules which they have established pursuant to Rule 83, N.M.R. Civ. P., N.M.S.A. 1978. We hold that trial courts have inherent power to alter such rules or to make exceptions to their application where the ends of justice and efficient administration so require, but that the failure to follow local rules cannot be upheld where such action is to the substantial prejudice of one of the parties to an action.
