53-8-12. Bylaws.

A.     The initial bylaws of a corporation shall be adopted by its board of directors. The power to alter, amend or repeal the bylaws or adopt new bylaws shall be vested in the board of directors unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation or the bylaws. The bylaws may contain any provisions for the regulation and management of the affairs of a corporation not inconsistent with law or the articles of incorporation.   

B.     The initial bylaws and any subsequent bylaws whether by amendment, repeal or new adoption shall be executed by two authorized officers of the corporation. The bylaws in effect for the corporation shall be maintained at the corporation's principal office in New Mexico and shall be subject to inspection and copying by the public. If the most recently adopted bylaws are so maintained, they shall not be void, notwithstanding any requirements of prior law. The corporation may charge a reasonable fee for copying its bylaws, not to exceed one dollar ($1.00) per page.
