How Does The Colorado District Court Work?

There are 22 judicial districts in the state of Colorado. Several counties make up a judicial district; however, four Colorado counties exist as entire judicial districts. These are Pueblo County (10th District), Weld County (19th District), Boulder County (20th district), and Mesa County (21st district). Colorado District Courts are trial courts of general jurisdiction handling matters such as:

• Divorce and Custody cases
• Civil cases
• Juvenile cases
• Probate cases
• Criminal cases
• Mental health cases

District Court cases may be appealed to the Court of Appeals and, in some instances, directly to the Supreme Court. Each District is headed by a Chief Judge appointed by the Supreme Court Chief Justice. In all, there a 192 judges serving in Colorado District Courts. The judges serve six-year terms in office.

Persons interested in finding case records for matters that went to trial in Colorado District Courts may find such through the Court Docket Search tool on the Colorado Judicial Branch website. Case records may be searched by selecting District in the court filter option, and providing the case number, a party’s first name or last name, or attorney bar number. Individuals may use other filter options such as county where the court is located, District, and date range. Note, the information provided via this tool is not extensive.
