Tri-State Generation & Transmission Ass'n v. N.M. Pub. Regulation Comm'n
Annotate this CaseIn a matter of first impression for the New Mexico Supreme Court, the issues this case presented related to the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission's authority and procedures in regulating utility rates of a generation and transmission cooperative, which statutorily differed from the Commission's powers over rates charged by public utilities. After review of the cooperatives' arguments on appeal of the Commission's decision, the Supreme Court ultimately vacated the Commission's order related to its suspension of the cooperative's proposed rates and provided guidance for similar situations that might arise in the future.
