Section 3.1.6.12 - PRESUMPTION OF CORRECTNESS OF ASSESSMENTA. Once a "Notice of Assessment of Taxes" has been mailed or personally delivered to a taxpayer, the statutory presumption of the correctness of the assessment will apply. The effect of the presumption of correctness is that the taxpayer has the burden of coming forward with some countervailing evidence tending to dispute the factual correctness of the assessment made by the secretary. Unsubstantiated statements that the assessment is incorrect cannot overcome the presumption of correctness.B. The presumption exists even if the secretary has issued assessments using alternative methods of reconstruction of a tax or has estimated the tax.N.M. Admin. Code § 3.1.6.12
