History: 1953 Comp., § 11-11-4, enacted by Laws 1975, ch. 350, § 4. ANNOTATIONSAttacking validity of proceedings. — The plaintiff's attack on the legality of the bond issue ordinance is an attack on the validity of the proceedings in which the ordinance was enacted, and thus is subject to the statute of limitations. Bolton v. Board of Cnty. Comm'rs, 1994-NMCA-167, 119 N.M. 355, 890 P.2d 808. Reasonableness of thirty-day limitations period. — In view of the need for issuance of bond issues by numerous public entities, the thirty-day statute of limitations imposed under the Public Securities Limitation of Action Act does not unreasonably restrict legitimate challenges to the validity of bond issues.
