and a notice of the date that the sex offender's next verification is due. The sex offender
shall appear in person at a location designated by the department to verify the
information contained on the form, to change the information as necessary and to sign a
statement under oath that the information is true and correct. The department may
photograph the sex offender at that time if the sex offender's appearance is significantly
different from the photograph already contained in the sex offender's file. If a sex
offender does not receive a verification form before the time that the sex offender is
required to verify registration pursuant to Subsection L of this section, the sex offender
shall appear at a location designated by the department to verify registration information
as required by this section.

   O. The department shall establish a secure system that will permit a sex offender to
notify the department electronically of any change in registration information.

    P. A sex offender who willfully or knowingly fails to comply with the registration or
verification requirements set forth in this section is guilty of a fourth degree felony and
shall be sentenced pursuant to the provisions of Section 31-18-15 NMSA 1978. A sex
offender who willfully or knowingly fails to comply with the registration or verification
requirements set forth in this section after a first or subsequent conviction for a violation
pursuant to this section is guilty of a third degree felony and shall be sentenced
pursuant to the provisions of Section 31-18-15 NMSA 1978. The willful failure to comply
with any registration or verification requirement set forth in this section shall be deemed
part of a continuing transaction or occurrence. A conviction pursuant to this subsection

enhancements pursuant to the provisions of Section 31-18-17 NMSA 1978.

    Q. A sex offender who willfully or knowingly provides false information when
complying with the registration or verification requirements set forth in this section is
guilty of a fourth degree felony and shall be sentenced pursuant to the provisions of
Section 31-18-15 NMSA 1978. A sex offender who willfully or knowingly provides false
information when complying with the registration or verification requirements set forth in
this section after a first or subsequent conviction for a violation pursuant to this section
is guilty of a third degree felony and shall be sentenced pursuant to the provisions of
Section 31-18-15 NMSA 1978. The willful providing by a sex offender of false
information with respect to the registration or verification requirements set forth in this
section shall be deemed part of a continuing transaction or occurrence. A conviction
pursuant to this subsection shall not be considered a felony for purposes of the
imposition of sentencing enhancements pursuant to the provisions of Section 31-18-17
NMSA 1978.

amendments to the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act enacted by Laws

Applicability. — Laws 2005, ch. 279, §14, effective July 1, 2005, provided that Laws
2005, ch. 279, §§ 1 through 13 apply to a person convicted of a sex offense on or after

The 2000 amendment, effective July 1, 2000, inserted "registration" near the end of the

Subsections C, D, and H; and redesignated former Subsections C through E, F, and G
as Subsections E through G, I, and J, respectively.

Statutory elements of California and New Mexico offenses were not equivalent. —
Defendant’s conviction in California of the misdemeanor offense of annoying or
molesting a child, which does not require touching or application of force, was not the
equivalent of sexual contact of a minor, which requires touching or the application of
force, was not a "sex offense" as that term is defined in the Sex Offender Registration
and Notification Act, and did not require defendant to register as a sex offender in New
Mexico. State v. Hall, 2011-NMCA-047, 149 N.M. 546, 252 P.3d 770, cert. granted,
2011-NMCERT-005, 150 N.M. 666, 265 P.3d 717.

Assistance of counsel. — Defense counsel has an affirmative duty to advise a
defendant charged with a sex offense that a plea of guilty or no contest will almost
certainly subject the defendant to the registration requirements of SORNA. Proper
advice will also include a discussion regarding what SORNA registration will mean, both
in terms of the specific registration and notification provisions set forth in this article, as
well as the likely social consequences of being a registered sex offender. This is the
minimum advice a defendant needs before deciding to waive his or her constitutional
rights by entering into a plea agreement. Failure to so advise the defendant amounts to
deficient performance under the Strickland test. State v. Edwards, 2007-NMCA-043,
141 N.M. 491, 157 P.3d 56, cert. quashed, 142 N.M. 436, 166 P.3d 1090.

Court cannot stay registration pending appeal. — Trial judges have neither the
power nor the discretion to stay the application of the SORNA pending the outcome of
an appeal. State v. Myers, 2011-NMSC-028, 150 N.M. 1, 256 P.3d 13, rev'g 2010-
NMCA-007, 147 N.M. 574, 226 P.3d 673.

A trial court has discretion to stay Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act
registration pending appeal. State v. Myers, 2010-NMCA-007, 147 N.M. 574, 226
P.3d 673, rev'd, 2011-NMSC-028, 150 N.M. 1, 256 P.3d 13.

Stay of registration pending appeal. — Where defendant was convicted of sexual
exploitation of children by manufacturing child pornography; the diagnostic evaluation of
defendant concluded that defendant is not a pedophile and that with treatment,
defendant’s risk of re-offending was low; defendant was required to inform the sheriff’s
department of defendant’s current residence and work location and update the
information with any changes; and the trial court released defendant pending appeal,
the trial court did not abuse its discretion by staying defendant’s registration as a sex
offender pending the outcome of the appeal. State v. Myers, 2010-NMCA-007, 147 N.M.
574, 226 P.3d 673, rev'd, 2011-NMSC-028, 150 N.M. 1, 256 P.3d 13.

Not applicable to Native Americans. — The state does not have authority to require
an Indian who was convicted of a sex offense in a court other than a New Mexico state
court, is an Indian living in Indian country, and is not attending school or employed
outside of Indian country, to comply with the requirements of Sex Offender Registration
and Notification Act. State v. Atcitty, 2009-NMCA-086, 146 N.M. 781, 215 P.3d 90, cert.
quashed, 2010-NMCERT-010, 149 N.M. 64, 243 P.3d 1146.

Insufficient evidence that defendant willfully failed to register. — Where the
defendant was released from probation on the defendant’s convictions for sex offenses
in 1998; the defendant registered in 2003 after the defendant received a letter informing
the defendant that the defendant was required to register; the defendant registered in
2004, but failed to register after 2004; the defendant’s judgment and sentence for sex
offenses, which was entered before the enactment of the Sex Offender Registration and
Notification Act, did not mention any requirement that the defendant register as a sex
offender; there was no evidence that when the defendant was released from probation,
the defendant was informed of a duty to register as a sex offender; when the deputy
sheriff validated the defendant’s sex offender registry information he did not inform the
defendant that the defendant had a continuing duty to register annually; there was no
evidence that when the defendant registered in 2003 and 2004, the defendant was
informed that he had the duty to register annually, the evidence failed to show that the
defendant willfully failed to comply with the annual registration requirements. State v.
Billington, 2009-NMCA-014, 145 N.M. 526, 201 P.3d 857, cert. denied, 2009-NMCERT-
001, 145 N.M. 655, 203 P.3d 870.

The only issue raised by an appeal of a conviction for failure to register as a sex
offender is whether the defendant’s failure to register was willful. State v. Burke, 2008-
NMSC-052, 144 N.M. 772, 192 P.3d 767, rev'g 2007-NMCA-093, 142 N.M. 218, 164
P.3d 99.

The sheriff has discretion to adopt reasonable time, place and manner
restrictions on the process of registration of sex offenders. State v. Burke, 2007-
NMCA-093, 142 N.M. 218, 164 P.3d 99, rev'd, 2008-NMSC-052, 144 N.M. 772, 192
P.3d 767.

A protocol that restricted the time when sex offenders could register to the hours
between 1:00 and 4:00 on Wednesday afternoon was reasonable. State v. Burke, 2007-
NMCA-093, 142 N.M. 218, 164 P.3d 99, rev'd, 2008-NMSC-052, 144 N.M. 772, 192
P.3d 767.

No violation of due process. — Court’s failure to advise defendant, at the time of his
plea, of sex offender registration consequences under New Mexico’s Sex Offender
Registration and Notification Act did not violate due process of law. State v. Moore,
2004-NMCA-035, 135 N.M. 210, 86 P.3d 635.

Multiple convictions for failure to register violated double jeopardy. — Where
defendant was convicted of third degree criminal sexual penetration, and was thereafter
required to register as a sex offender pursuant to the Sex Offender Registration and
Notification Act, 29-11A-1 to -10 NMSA 1978, which required that he register every
ninety days and also within ten days of changing his address, and where during a
certain period of time defendant was evicted and required to move out of his home
which resulted in defendant missing both statutory deadlines, defendant's multiple
convictions for failure to register violated his right to be free from double jeopardy,
because the legislature's use of "any" in Subsection P indicates that it contemplated that
more than one violation may occur within a given period of non-compliance before the
offender next registers, and expressly stated that those violations are part of a
continuing transaction or occurrence such that defendant may only be charged with one
offense. State v. Cain, 2019-NMCA-059, cert. denied.

Act does not constitute punishment. — Although the notification and registration
provisions under Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act are immediate and
automatic, they do not constitute punishment for a crime. State v. Moore, 2004-NMCA-
035, 135 N.M. 210, 86 P.3d 635.

Registration and notification consequences are collateral. — Sex offender
registration law consequences are collateral consequences of a plea and therefore not
consequences that require a court, under the due process clause, to advise a defendant
of the consequences of registration under Sex Offender Registration and Notification
Act. State v. Moore, 2004-NMCA-035, 135 N.M. 210, 86 P.3d 635.

Role of court. — The court does not impose Sex Offender Registration and Notification
Act provisions or have discretion to modify them in accepting a plea. State v. Moore,
2004-NMCA-035, 135 N.M. 210, 86 P.3d 635.

Where defendant was charged with crimes that require, on conviction, registration under
SORNA and where defendant pleaded no contest to crimes that do not require
registration, district court did not have the authority to include, as a condition of
defendant's probation, that defendant provide the sheriff information required under
SORNA and to give the sheriff the discretion to process the information under SORNA.
State v. Williams, 2006-NMCA-092, 140 N.M. 194, 141 P.3d 538.

Effect of vacated conviction. — Where petitioner positioned petitioner’s truck across
the roadway to block the path of the victim’s car, entered the victim’s car and raped the
victim; petitioner was convicted of first-degree kidnapping and second-degree criminal
sexual penetration; petitioner was required to register as a sex offender; the court of
appeals vacated the rape conviction because petitioner’s conviction for both first-degree
kidnapping and rape would result in double punishment for the same conduct in
violation of the double jeopardy clause; petitioner argued that petitioner was no longer
required to register as a sex offender; the jury found petitioner guilty of both first-degree
kidnapping and rape based on the same conduct; and the elements of first-degree
kidnapping were supported by the elements of the rape conviction, petitioner was
required to register as a sex offender. Montoya v. Driggers, 2014-NMSC-009.

Effect of dismissed charges. — When a deferred sentence expires and charges are
dismissed, a conviction is not eradicated under the Sex Offender Registration and
Notification Act, Chapter 29, Article 11A NMSA 1978; therefore, the defendant is still
subject to the registration requirements of this section. State v. Brothers, 2002-NMCA-
