New Mexico Statutes Chapter 53. Corporations § 53-4-28. Share and membership certificates; attachment

The holdings of any member of an association, to the extent of the minimum amount necessary for membership, shall be exempt from attachment, execution, or garnishment for the debts of the owner. If any holdings in excess of this amount are subject to such liability, the directors of the association may either admit the purchaser thereof to membership, or may, if and when there are sufficient surplus funds, purchase from him such holdings at par value.
