Even though the state has determined the man accused of killing two people in Santa Fe is competent to stand trial, his lawyer disagrees.
Arthur Anaya is accused of shooting and killing 16-year-old Austin Urban and 51-year-old Theresa Vigil in January.
Police said it was over a late rent payment.
Officers arrested him after he spent four days on the run.
The state ruled that Anaya competent to stand trial in May, but his attorney is asking the First Judicial District Court to reevaluate Anaya's competency.
A hearing on the motion is set for Sept. 20.
