N.M. Admin. Code § 15.6.2.16 - UNARMED COMBATANT DEFAULT OF CONTRACT

A. If an unarmed combatant claims that his failure to fulfill the terms of his contract was caused by illness or injury or by conditions over which he had no control, he shall submit such claim in writing to the commission.

B. The commission may then decide whether such default requires the imposition of any penalty or disciplinary action.

C. In the event that either no claim is made, or that it is made and rejected by the commission:

(1) the commission may suspend or revoke the license of the unarmed combatant in default and award to the opponent the amount of any forfeit posed under the terms of the contract; and

(2) the commission may declare the defaulting unarmed combatant ineligible for any other unarmed combat contest in the state of New Mexico until such terms of the breached contract are fulfilled.

D. If the commission finds that the default was excusable, the defaulting unarmed combatant must fulfill the terms of the contract by an adjourned date subject to the approval of the commission. Subject to penalty of suspension or revocation of his license, the unarmed combatant shall not combat in any other unarmed combat contest or for any other promoter without the approval of the commission.
