Colorado Criminal Court COVID-19 Status:
Jury trials are suspended through August 3, 2020. With an exemption from the Colorado Supreme Court, a county may conduct a jury trial before that time. Jury trials will resume on a limited basis in El Paso County starting July 6, 2020. Per the Supreme Court, if you have a jury summons and “have a vulnerability for COVID-19, have been diagnosed with COVID-19, or have been in direct contact with someone who has been diagnosed with COVID-19 within 14 days of your scheduled jury service,” you are to contact the jury commissioner to reschedule.
Colorado courts are operating on a limited basis. Some cases are heard in person, while others are being conducted remotely through Webex or Microsoft Teams audio-video conferencing. In addition, the Colorado Supreme Court has outlined steps the judiciary is taking to coordinate the justice system in this pandemic.
