March 9, 1944

BY: EDWARD P. CHASE, Attorney General

TO: Mr. William J. Eaton, City Attorney, Socorro, New Mexico

Receipt is acknowledged of your letter of March 6, 1944.

We have carefully searched the statutes and, in our opinion, there is no law which prohibits a school teacher from running for or being elected and serving as a member of the City Council.

By HARRY L. BIGBEE,

Asst. Atty. General

 You are being directed to the most recent version of the statute which may not be the version considered at the time of the judgment.
