History: Laws 1981, ch. 39, § 59.
Effect of one wholesaler dominating market. — Where one wholesaler in New Mexico so dominates a substantial number of retail dealers that such retail dealers are compelled to purchase substantially all of their distilled spirits from such wholesaler, the practice restrains and prevents transactions in such distilled spirits between other wholesalers in the state and distillers and distributors elsewhere.
