Which court directly follows Municipal in the NM court order?

The question tests your understanding of the sequence of courts in New Mexico. In the state’s court system, cases progress from Municipal courts to the next level, the Magistrate Courts, before moving on to District Court, then the Court of Appeals, and finally the Supreme Court. “Directly follows” means the immediate next tier above Municipal, which is the Magistrate Court. The Metropolitan Court exists as a specialized trial court in some urban areas, but the standard next step in the hierarchy is Magistrate Court.
