7-8A-27. Transitional provisions.
(a) An initial report filed under the Uniform Unclaimed Property Act (1995) for property that was not required to be reported before the effective date of that act, but which is subject to that act, must include all items of property that would have been presumed abandoned during the ten-year period next preceding the effective date of the Uniform Unclaimed Property Act (1995) as if that act had been in effect during that period.
(b) The Uniform Unclaimed Property Act (1995) does not relieve a holder of a duty that arose before the effective date of that act to report, pay or deliver property. Except as otherwise provided in Section 19(b) [7-8A-19(b) NMSA 1978] of the Uniform Unclaimed Property Act (1995), a holder who did not comply with the law in effect before the effective date of that act is subject to the applicable provisions for enforcement and penalties which then existed, which are continued in effect for the purpose of this section.
