Justice Sues New Mexico Over Military License Rules
Description
The Department of Justice is suing New Mexico over its strict law license transfer rules, claiming they violate the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act — a federal law meant to help military families keep their careers when relocating. New Mexico argues its thorough background checks are necessary for public safety, while the feds say the state’s process is overly burdensome and undermines military readiness. With no response from New Mexico’s top legal bodies and a federal judge poised to rule, this unusual case could reshape how states handle license portability for service members and their spouses.
