Denver County (2nd Judicial District)

Unlike all other judicial districts in Colorado, the Second Judicial District is not a combined court. Denver is comprised of four constitutionally separate courts: County Court, District Court, Probate Court and Juvenile Court.

Denver Courts are located in both the City and County Building and the Lindsey-Flanigan Courthouse. The Denver District Court (civil and domestic matters), County Court (traffic and civil matters) and Probate Court are all located in the City and County Building. Denver Criminal Courts, as well as District, County, and all Juvenile Court matters, are located in the Lindsey-Flanigan Courthouse.

Colorado Supreme Court & Court of Appeals

The Colorado Court of Appeals has initial jurisdiction, with exceptions, over appeals from the Colorado District Courts, Denver Probate Court, and Denver Juvenile Court. In addition, the Court of Appeals has specific appellate jurisdiction over decisions originating from a number of state administrative boards and agencies, including the Industrial Claim Appeals Office. Reviews of the Court of Appeals’ decisions are directed to the Colorado Supreme Court.

The Colorado Supreme Court and Court of Appeals are located at the Ralph Carr Judicial Center:
