        "text": "OPINION\nOMAN, Justice.\nThis cause is before us on a writ of certiorari directed to the New Mexico Court of Appeals;\nPetitioner, defendant below, issued to respondent, plaintiff below, on March 7, 1953, five \u2022 cashier\u2019s checks in the amount of $1,000.00 each. Respondent deposited these checks to his credit in a Mexican bank on September 23, 1968. Petitioner refused to honor the checks on September 30, 1968. Respondent brought suit for damages claiming the dishonor was wrongful. The trial court rendered judgment in favor of respondent for $5,000.00. Petitioner appealed and respondent cross-appealed to the New Mexico Court of Appeals.\nBy a majority opinion, the Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment for $5,000.00 in favor of respondent and remanded the cause to the trial court for a determination of the amount of consequential damages to which the Court of Appeals held respondent was entitled. Allison v. First National Bank In Albuquerque, 85 N.M. 283, 511 P.2d 769 (Ct.App.1973). We reverse the Court of Appeals.\nWe agree with \u2019and adopt the reasoning of the dissenting opinion of Joe W. Wood, Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals. Clearly the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, as adopted by New Mexico in 1961, are not applicable to this case. However, as shown by the dissenting opinion of Chief Judge Wood, our six year statute of limitations [\u00a7 23-1-3, N.M. S.A.1953] would be applicable and the result the same under our Uniform Commercial Code.\nThe decision of the Court of Appeals and the judgment of the trial court must be reversed and the cause remanded for the entry of judgment by the trial court dismissing respondent\u2019s complaint.\nIt is so ordered.\nMcMANUS, C. J., and STEPHENSON, MONTOYA and MARTINEZ, JJ., concur.",
