DISPOSITIONAL ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE
VIGIL, Chief Justice.
{1} WHEREAS, the Court granted Defendant Michael Jaramillo’s petition for writ of
certiorari to review the Court of Appeals determination that the district court erred in
ruling that the blood test results at issue were inadmissible because the district court
misapprehended State v. Adams, 2019-NMCA-043, 447 P.3d 1142 and NMSA 1978,
Section 66-8-103 (1978); and
{2} WHEREAS, the Court ordered that this case be held in abeyance pending the
Court’s disposition of State v. Adams, 2022-NMSC-008, 503 P.3d 1130; and
{3} WHEREAS, this Court issued an opinion in Adams, id.; and
{4} WHEREAS, the Court concludes that the issue of law presented in this case was
addressed by the Court’s opinion in Adams, id.; and
{5} WHEREAS, the Court exercises its discretion under Rule 12-405(B)(1) NMRA to
dispose of this case by nonprecedential order rather than a formal opinion;
{6} NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the memorandum opinion of the
Court of Appeals is affirmed, and the matter is remanded to the district court for further
proceedings in accordance with Adams, 2022-NMSC-008.
{7} IT IS SO ORDERED.
