§ 53-8-25.2 NMSA 1978

Liability of directors

Known as the Nonprofit Corporation Act

The act spans §§ 53–53 (106 sections).

1978 Comp., § 53-8-25.2, enacted by Laws 1987, ch. 238, § 6.

No director of the corporation shall be personally liable to the corporation or its members for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director unless:

A. the director has breached or failed to perform the duties of the director's office in compliance with Section 53-8-25.1 NMSA 1978; and

B. the breach or failure to perform constitutes willful misconduct or recklessness.

The provisions of this section shall, however, only eliminate the liability of a director for action taken as a director or any failure to take action as a director at meetings of the board of directors or of a committee of the board of directors or by virtue of action of the directors without a meeting pursuant to Section 53-8-97 NMSA 1978, on or after the date when the provisions of this section become effective.
