WALTERS, Chief Judge (specially concurring). I specially concur only to disagree with the language of the majority’s penultimate paragraph. I do not read the record to show refusal of counsel “to obey” but, rather, to show a lawyer’s concern for “making his record” toward the goal of calling error “to the attention of the trial court so that the trial court might have corrected or avoided the claimed error.” Scott v. Brown, 76 N.M. 501, 416 P.2d 516 (1966); Mitchell v. Allison, 54 N.M. 56, 213 P.2d 231 (1949).
