How does the victim find out about restitution when the offender is sentenced to a correctional facility?

FAQ Item

Collections Investigators and the Office of Restitution Services are available to answer questions, regardless of an offender’s status.

However, responsibility for collection of restitution transfers to the Department of Corrections or the Division of Youth Services while the offender is in custody of that facility. Payments continue to be sent to the Clerk of Court for disbursement to victims. Please contact the appropriate department listed below for additional information:

Who will pay me for serving as a juror?

FAQ Item

Your employer has a duty under state law to pay regular wages up to $50 per day if you are regularly employed per §13-71-126, C.R.S.  Employers may pay more than $50 by mutual agreement. If you are self-employed you may ask the court for up to $50 per day for the first three days or juror service (§13-71-127, C.R.S.). Unemployed persons may apply for reimbursement of certain expenses during the first three days. After the third day, all jurors receive $50 per day from the state. There are provisions for special hardships and certain expenses.  Please discuss these with the jury commissioner.
 

What is a Family Assessment or Home Study?

FAQ Item

In Colorado, prospective adoptive parents in kinship or custodial adoption cases are required to participate in a family assessment or home study. A social worker from a licensed placement agency will conduct the home study and provide a detailed written report to the court. The purpose of the home study is for the caseworker to visit your home, interview you and educate, prepare and evaluate the adoptive family. 

In kinship and custodial adoption cases, the potential adoptive parents can ask the court to waive the assessment by completing and filing the Motion to Waive the Family Assessment/Home Study (JDF 515) and the Order (JDF 516). C.R.S. § 19-5-206(g).
