      The main results of the paper are the following: Theorem 1. The \(N(k)\)-contact metric manifold with vanishing extended contact conformal curvature tensor is a Sasakian manifold. Theorem 2. The \((2n+1)\)-dimensional \(N(k)\)-contact metric manifold with non-vanishing contact conformal curvature tensor \(c_0\) satisfies the condition \[ R (\xi,x)\cdot C_0=0 \] if and only if it is locally isometric to the product \(E^{n+1}\times S^n(4)\) for \(n>1\) and flat for \(n=1\). Theorem 3. The \(N(k)\)-contact metric manifold satisfies the condition \[ Co(\xi,X)\cdot S=0 \] if and only if it is a 3-dimensional flat manifold.
