The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

“The nondisclosed documents were in the possession of the district attorney’s office, but had been placed in the wrong file. The nondisclosure was inadvertent. No different standard applies because the nondisclosure is negligent rather than deliberate. Trimble v. State, 75 N.M. 183 , 402 P.2d 162 (1965); compare State v. Hogervorst, 87 N.M. 458 , 535 P.2d 1084 (Ct.App.1975).”
